There is provided a polylactic acid resin composition having elevated impact resistance and/or elevated heat deflection temperature, the composition comprising polylactic acid as a major phase. There is also provided an article made of this composition and a masterbatch for producing this composition through dilution with polylactic acid. Finally, there is also provided a process for making such a composition, the process comprising the step of compounding together the following ingredients: polylactic acid, a mineral filler, a chain mobility additive, optionally an impact modifier, and optionally a chain extender, thereby producing the resin composition. |
