    Abstract
    The “sliding graft copolymer” (SGC), in which many linear poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) side chains are bound to cyclodextrin rings of a polyrotaxane (PR), was prepared and employed to toughen brittle polylactide (PLA) with methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) by reactive blending. The SGC was in situ crosslinked and therefore transformed from a crystallized plastic into a totally amorphous elastomer during reactive blending. Meanwhile, PLA-co-SGC copolymer was formed at interface to greatly improve the compatibility between PLA and SGC, and the chain extension of PLA also occurred, were confirmed by FTIR, GPC, SEM, and TEM. The resulting PLA/SGC/MDI blends displayed super impact toughness, elongation at break and nice biocompatibility. It was inferred from these results the crosslinked SGC (c-SGC) elastomeric particles with sliding crosslinking points performed as stress concentrators and absorbed considerable energy under impact and tension process.
