The present study revealed that an injection-molded product comprising poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVAL) exhibited an anomalous dimensional change, i.e., expansion in the flow direction, after postprocessing annealing (around 2.9% expansion by annealing at 80–100 °C for 3 h). Although the crystallization of the PLA during cooling was not accelerated by the addition of PVAL, the PLA showed transcrystallization from the dispersed PVAL droplets, which were deformed in the flow direction, during postprocessing annealing. Therefore, after annealing, the injection-molded products exhibited a high degree of molecular orientation, in contrast to the original unannealed products, which were not oriented. This anomalous behavior should be noted as a means of controlling dimensional change after processing.
