Mcl-PHAs have significantly lower melting point temperatures
than scl-PHAs; they range from 39 to 61 C and are strongly
dependent on the thermal history of the material. Their glass
transition temperature is usually below room temperature, ranging
from 43 to 25 C, and they are about 25% crystalline. These
characteristics make mcl-PHAs more flexible and elastic materials
than scl-PHAs (Sudesh et al., 2000).
