Long chain branching (LCB) of polylactide (PLA) was successfully prepared by the successive reactions of PLA with pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and 1,4-phenylene-bis-oxazoline (PBOZ) together. The topological structures of the LCB generated from functional group reactions were investigated thoroughly by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and rheology. Qualitative information about the branching structures could be readily obtained from linear viscoelasticity, nonlinear oscillatory shear experiments and strain hardening in elongational experiments. For quantitative information on chain structure, linear viscoelasticity combined with branch-on-branch (BOB) dynamic model was used to predict probable compositions and chain topologies of the products, which were reasonably explained by the suggested mechanism of functional group reactions. It was found out that the star-like LCB structure generated in these reactions contributed remarkably to the enhancement of strain hardening under elongational flow.
