The present disclosure is directed to polymer blends comprising a biopolymer and a substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic polyester. The aliphatic polyester comprises repeating units derivable from a substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic diacid, repeating units derivable from a substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic diol, and one or two terminator units derivable from a substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic alcohol. The polymer blends disclosed herein provide improved flexibility, and are useful, for example, in the production of packaging materials, industrial products, durable goods, and the like. |
