(a) and (b): First heating run (a) and second heating run (b) DSC curves for neat PLLA (1), CPL1/50°C (2), and CPL1/130°C (3) samples. DSC thermograms are offset along the ordinate for clarity. (c) and (d): Curve fitting and separation of the complex melting endotherm for neat PLLA (c) and for CPL/50°C sample (d). Partial contributions of the phases into the total endotherm constitute 53.8 and 46.2 relative% (c); 35.5 (1), 17.9 (2) and 46.6 (3) relative% (d) correspondingly.
