Hello @Walter Hay ,
I hope you are doing well. I am planning to ship this product that is made from PLA (Polylactic Acid) with the train from China to the Netherlands. The product will be in transport for 3 weeks in the train.
My concern is that the PLA material has a glass transition of 45 degrees Celsius. This means that if it gets hotter than 45 degrees Celsius, it might start deforming. The product has a component that is a sphere shape, so any deformity will be really noticeable.
I have sent my forwarder an email regarding this (and the manufacturer too), but I thought it might also be good idea to double check by asking you since it is a big and expensive shipment.
Could you tell me whether this will become a problem or give me a way to find out about this? I will also be asking this on forums about chemistry.
Thank you!
