Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) bead foams with stereocomplex (Sc)/α crystals were prepared by melt mixing and solid‐state foaming methods, independently. A systematic method was applied to evaluate the effect of Sc/α crystals on rheological properties and foaming behavior of PLA. The results indicated that the presence of Sc/α crystals affected the foaming behavior and the melt elasticity of PLA. Hence, the enhanced rheological properties of PLA had a significant effect on controlling the foaming behavior. As a result, PLA bead foam with an expansion ratio of 24‐fold was developed. And, the presence of Sc/α crystals could also facilitate the sintering behavior and broaden the sintering process window. Sintered PLA bead foam with finer cellular morphology and strong sintering effect was obtained by inducing an appropriate Sc/α crystalline structure. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

In this paper, different strategies to promote PLA crystallization were investigated with the objective of increasing the crystalline content under typical polymer processing conditions. The effect of heterogeneous nucleation was assessed by adding talc, sodium stearate and calcium lactate as potential nucleating agents. The PLA chain mobility was increased by adding up to 10 wt% acetyl triethyl citrate and polyethylene glycol as plasticizers. The crystallization kinetics were studied using DSC analysis under both isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. The isothermal data showed that talc is highly effective in nucleating the PLA in the 80-120 °C temperature range. In the non-isothermal DSC experiments, the crystallinity developed upon cooling was systematically studied at cooling rates of 10, 20, 40, and 80 °C/min. The non-isothermal data showed that the combination of nucleant and plasticizer is necessary to develop significant crystallinity at high cooling rates. The nucleated and/or plasticized PLA samples were injection molded and the effect of mold temperature on crystallinity was determined. It was possible to mold the PLA formulations using mold temperatures either below 40 °C or greater than 60 °C. At low temperature, the molded parts were nearly amorphous while at high mold temperatures, the PLA formulation with proper nucleation and plasticization was shown to achieve crystallinity levels up to 40%, close to the maximum crystalline content of the material. Tensile mechanical properties and temperature resistance of these amorphous and semi-crystalline materials were examined. 相似文献

左旋聚乳酸(PLLA)和右旋聚乳酸(PDLA)在共混体系中可形成立构复合(sc)结晶,与聚乳酸(PLA)同质结晶材料相比,sc 结晶材料具有良好的耐热性和耐化学稳定性。因此,sc 结晶是改善PLA 综合性能的一种有效手段。但在PLLA/PDLA 共混体系中,存在各自的同质结晶与两者之间sc 结晶的竞争,所以制备高耐热sc 型PLA 材料的关键之一是理解其sc 结晶的形成条件与机理,进而调控和促进其sc 结晶程度。在PLLA/PDLA 共混物中,sc 结晶受聚合物化学结构、结晶与加工条件等诸多因素影响,其影响规律和机理较复杂。根据PLLA/PDLA共混物sc 结晶行为影响因素的不同,从聚合物分子量、立构规整性、共混比例、分子链拓扑结构、结晶方式与条件、加工助剂和其他组分加入6 个方面出发,详细综述了PLLA/PDLA 共混物sc 结晶及其sc 材料制备的研究进展,以期为高耐热生物基PLA 材料的加工制备提供指导。 相似文献

The mechanical properties and microstructure of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) stereocomplex spherulite at the micrometric scale were investigated using nanoindentation and synchrotron radiation scanning X‐ray microdiffraction, which exhibits a new growth habit with more and more compact lamellae. Using atomic force microscopy and laser scanning confocal microscopy, a unique sunken morphology was found. Unbalanced surface stress and volume shrinkage are proposed as the main factors for the sunken morphology, which is also contributed by a novel growth regime driven by the hydrogen bonding between two PLA enantiomers. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

The kinetics of crystal nucleation of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) has been analyzed by fast scanning chip calorimetry in a wide temperature range between 313 and 383 K, that is, between temperatures about 30 K below and 40 K above the glass transition temperature. The relaxed melt was rapidly cooled to the analysis temperature and subsequently aged between 10−1 and 104 s, to permit formation of nuclei. The number of formed crystal nuclei has been probed by analysis of the crystallization rate at 393 K. The nucleation rate is maximal at 370–375 K and decreases monotonously with decreasing temperature in the analyzed temperature range. The observation of a monomodal dependence of the nucleation rate on temperature points to predominance of a single nucleation mechanism in the analyzed temperature range, regardless nucleation occurs in the glassy or devitrified amorphous phase. The collected data suggest that nuclei formation at ambient temperature requires a waiting time longer than about 108 s. The performed study is considered as a quantitative completion of nucleation-rate data available for PLLA only at temperatures higher than 360 K, suggesting that the nucleation mechanism is independent on temperature in the analyzed temperature range between 313 and 383 K. 相似文献

Poly(l ‐lactic acid) (PLLA) is a good biomedical polymer material with wide applications. The addition of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) as a plasticizer and the formation of stereocomplex crystals (SCs) have been proved to be effective methods for improving the crystallization of PLLA, which will promote its heat resistance. In this work, the crystallization behavior of PEG and PLLA/poly(d ‐lactic acid) (PDLA) in PLLA/PDLA/PEG and PEG‐b‐PLLA/PEG‐b‐PDLA blends has been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry, polarized optical microscopy and X‐ray diffraction. Both SCs and homocrystals (HCs) were observed in blends with asymmetric mass ratio of PLLA/PDLA, while exclusively SCs were observed in blends with approximately equal mass ratio of PLLA/PDLA. The crystallization of PEG was only observed for the symmetric blends of PLLA39k/PDLA35k/PEG2k, PLLA39k/PDLA35k/PEG5k, PLLA69k/PDLA96k/PEG5k and PEG‐b‐PLLA31k/PEG‐b‐PDLA27k, where the mass ratio of PLLA/PDLA was approximately 1/1. The results demonstrated that the formation of exclusively SCs would facilitate the crystallization of PEG, while the existence of both HCs and SCs could restrict the crystallization of PEG. The crystallization of PEG is related to the crystallinity of PLLA and PDLA, which will be promoted by the formation of SCs. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

The recently developed differential fast scanning calorimetry (DFSC) is used for a new look at the crystal growth of poly(?-caprolactone) (PCL) from 185 K, below the glass transition temperature, to 330 K, close to the equilibrium melting temperature. The DFSC allows temperature control of the sample and determination of its heat capacity using heating rates from 50 to 50,000 K/s. The crystal nucleation and crystallization halftimes were determined simultaneously. The obtained halftimes cover a range from 3 × 10−2 s (nucleation at 215 K) to 3 × 109 s (crystallization at 185 K). After attempting to analyze the experiments with the classical nucleation and growth model, developed for systems consisting of small molecules, a new methodology is described which addresses the specific problems of crystallization of flexible linear macromolecules. The key problems which are attempted to be resolved concern the differences between the structures of the various entities identified and their specific role in the mechanism of growth. The structures range from configurations having practically unmeasurable latent heats of ordering (nuclei) to being clearly-recognizable, ordered species with rather sharp disordering endotherms in the temperature range from the glass transition to equilibrium melting for increasingly perfect and larger crystals. The mechanisms and kinetics of growth involve also a detailed understanding of the interaction with the surrounding rigid-amorphous fraction (RAF) in dependence of crystal size and perfection. 相似文献

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/polyethylene glycol (PEG)/organic montmorillonite (OMMT) composites were prepared by melt blending, and their mechanical, rheological behavior, crystalline behavior, and thermal stability were investigated. Results showed that the elongation-at-break and notch-impact strength of PLA/15PEG/1.5OMMT were 466.45% and 4.34 kJ m−2, respectively, which were nearly 42 and 2 times higher than those of PLA, respectively. The elongation-at-break of PLA/15PEG/1.5OMMT was also 33 times higher than that of PLA/15PEG and 30 times that of PLA/1.5OMMT. With addition of PEG, PLA chains could insert to OMMT effectively and increase the layer space of OMMT. The characteristics of dynamic behavior and fracture morphology showed that the plasticizer PEG could soften the PLA matrix, leading to easy plastic deformation. OMMT was well distributed in the PLA matrix and able to transfer the stress of external forces, thereby contributing to the matrix yielding initiation and expansion of polymer composites. The synergistic effect of OMMT and PEG was determined by studying the mechanical properties of PLA/PEG/OMMT composite. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry studies revealed that OMMT as a nucleating agent improved crystallization and thermal stability. Thus, the synergistic effect of OMMT and PEG balanced the stiffness and toughness of PLA. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019 , 136, 47576. 相似文献

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) film plasticized with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) at various weight percentages (1–5 wt%) was prepared to improve the elongation, thus overcoming the inherent brittleness of the material. After optimization of the amount of PEO (4 wt%) through mechanical analysis, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), a well‐established plasticizer of PLA, was added (0.5–1.5 wt%) without hampering the transparency and tensile strength much, and again its amount was optimized (1 wt%). Neat PLA and PLA with the other components were solvent‐cast in the form of films using chloroform as a solvent. Improvement in elongation at break and reduction in tensile strength suggested a plasticizing effect of both PEO and PEG on PLA. Thermal and infrared data revealed that the addition of PEO induced β crystals in PLA. Scanning electron micrographs indicated a porous surface morphology of the blends. PEO alone in PLA exhibited the best optical clarity with higher percentage crystallinity, while PEG incorporation in PLA/PEO resulted in superior barrier properties. Also, the stability of the blends under a wide range of pH means prospective implementation of the films in packaging of food and non‐food‐grade products. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Binary blend films from lactide-rich poly(D -lactide-co-glycolide) (PDLG) and poly(L -lactide-co-glycolide) (PLLG) were obtained by casting methylene chloride solutions of the two mixed copolymers with different D- and L-lactide contents (XDI and XLI ), and their crystallization was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Four combinations were selected from the binary (A-B) blends: mixing of the same polymer [XDI (A) = XDI (B) or XLI (A) = XLI(B)], blending under XDI (B) = XLI (A), blending of a D -lactide homopolymer [XDI(B) = 1] with other PDLGs, and blending of a D -lactide homopolymer [XDI(B) = 1] with other PLLGs. Racemic crystallites were exclusively formed between PDLG and PLLG when they had high lactide unit contents. The melting point and enthalpy of fusion of the racemic crystallites decreased with a decrease in XDI of PDLG or XLI of PLLG, suggesting that glycolide units in the polymer disturbed the growth of the racemic crystallites. A similar behavior was also observed for the homocrystallization in nonblended copolymer films. Homocrystallites composed entirely either of D -lactide unit or L-lactide unit sequences were formed when one component was crystallizable and the other component had the same sign of optical rotation or very different lactide content. An interesting finding was that even nonhomocrystallizable lactide-poor PDLG and PLLG could form racemic crystallites when both were blended. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

The effects of the molecular weight of poly(D ‐lactic acid) (PDLA), which forms stereocomplex (SC) crystallites with poly(L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA), and those of processing temperature Tp on the acceleration (or nucleation) of PLLA homocrystallization were investigated using PLLA films containing 10 wt% PDLA with number‐average molecular weight (Mn) values of 5.47 × 105, 9.67 × 104 and 3.67 × 104 g mol–1 (PDLA‐H, PDLA‐M and PDLA‐L, respectively). For the PLLA/PDLA‐H and PLLA/PDLA‐M films, the SC crystallites that were ‘non’‐melted and those that were ‘completely’ melted at Tp values just above their endset melting temperature and recrystallized during cooling were found to act as effective accelerating (or nucleation) agents for PLLA homocrystallization. In contrast, SC crystallites formed from PDLA‐L, having the lowest Mn, were effective accelerating agents without any restrictions on Tp. In this case, the accelerating effects can be attributed to the plasticizer effect of PDLA‐L with the lowest Mn. The accelerating effects of SC crystallites in the PLLA/PDLA‐H and PLLA/PDLA‐M films was dependent on crystalline thickness for Tp values below the melting peak temperature of SC crystallites, whereas for Tp values above the melting peak temperature the accelerating effects are suggested to be affected by the interaction between the SC crystalline regions and PLLA amorphous regions. 相似文献

In order to explore the origin of the higher melting point of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) stereocomplex crystal (SC) than that of homo‐crystal (HC), the equilibrium melting point () differential between SC and HC was determined using the Hoffman–Weeks method. The results showed that, for PLA samples with Mn around 16, 20 and 65 kg mol?1, the differential between SC and HC is around 36, 42 and 55 °C, respectively. Thus, the higher melting point of SC compared to HC does not stem from differential only. For PLA samples with lower Mn, the supercooling differential between poly(l ‐lactic acid) (PLLA)/poly(d ‐lactic acid) (PDLA) blends and PLLA is smaller than that with higher Mn, which means chain diffusion behavior is crucial for SC formation in PLLA/PDLA blends. The fact that the SC adopts the intermolecular parallel arrangement rather than the adjacent chain folding is verified by the greater slope of the melting point of SC versus crystallization temperature fitting curve when Mn is relative higher. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Silica nanoparticle-filled poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN) composites were melt-blended to improve the mechanical and rheological properties of PEN. The melt viscosity and total torque values of the composites were reduced by the silica content. The crystallization exothermic peak shifted to a higher temperature, and the overall crystallization time was reduced by increasing the silica content. Non-isothermal crystallization kinetics was analyzed using the Ozawa and Avrami theories, and a combined method. The combined method was successful in describing the non-isothermal crystallization of these composites. The crystallization activation energy calculated using Kissinger's method was reduced, and the spherulite growth rate increased, with increasing silica content.A study of the nucleation activity, which indicated the influence of the filler on the polymer matrix, revealed that the fumed silica nanoparticles had a good nucleation effect on PEN. 相似文献

The incorporation of the triblock copolymer (PDLA-PEG-PDLA) into Poly(l-Lactic Acid) (PLLA) has produced a semicrystalline polymer of substantial modulus and strength. These improvements in mechanical properties could potentially increase the utility of this biomass-based polymer. The blended samples have a continuous amorphous phase with crystalline regions being the discontinuous portion. Micro-Raman spectroscopy revealed that a stereocomplex involving PDLA and PLLA chains exists in the crystalline region. It can be concluded that the poly(ethylene glycol), the flexible midblock component, is necessarily dispersed in these crystalline regions. Both morphological features can contribute to the improvement in mechanical properties. Therefore, the successful toughening of PLA may be achieved due to several mechanisms working synergistically. 相似文献

To obtain poly(lactic acid) (PLA) complex fibers, spinning was performed by wet and dry methods from 5–10 g/dL chloroform solutions of poly(D-lactic acid) (PDLA) and poly(L-lactic), both with a viscosity-average molecular weight of 3 × 105. The dope was extruded from a monohole nozzle into coagulation baths from ethanol and chloroform for wet spinning and into a drying column kept at 60°C for dry spinning. Scanning electron microscopic observation of the as-spun fibers showed that the surface of the wet-spun fiber had large basins with diameters of 50–100 μm and many pores with diameters from sub μm to 10 μm, whereas the surface of dry-spun fiber had a microporous structure with the pore diameter of 1–3 μm. The tensile strength of the wet-spun complex fiber was very low and could not be drawn at high temperatures, in contrast to the dry-spun fiber. The tensile strength of dry-spun complex fiber increased upon hot drawing and showed the tensile strength of 94 kg/mm2 by drawing at 160°C to the draw ratio of 13. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed that the complex fibers contained both the stereocomplex crystallites (racemic crystallites) and the crystallites of the single polymers, PDLA and PLLA, regardless of the spinning methods. The ratio of the racemic crystallites to the single-polymer crystallites increased with the draw ratio of the complex fiber. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

The effect of xylan propionate (XylPr) as a novel biomass‐derived nucleating agent on the poly(lactide) sterecomplex was investigated. Addition of XylPr to an enantiomeric blend of poly(l ‐lactide) (PLLA) and poly(d ‐lactide) (PDLA) was performed in either the solution state or molten state. The solution blend of PLLA/PDLA with XylPr was prepared by mixing equal volumes of 1 wt% XylPr/PLLA and 1 wt% XylPr/PDLA solutions in chloroform and precipitating in methanol. The solution blend with XylPr showed shorter half‐time crystallization than the solution blend without XylPr in isothermal crystallization between 80 and 140 °C, although homocrystallization occurred. Enhanced stereocomplex crystallization in the solution blend with XylPr was observed at 180 °C, where no crystallization occurred in the solution blend without XylPr. Addition of XylPr to PLLA/PDLA blend in the molten state was performed at 240 °C. Thereafter, the melt blend of PLLA/PDLA with or without XylPr was either quenched in iced water or isothermally crystallized directly from the melt. Isothermal crystallization of the melt‐quenched blend with XylPr gave a similar result to the solution blend with XylPr. In contrast, the melt‐crystallized blend with XylPr formed only stereocomplex crystals after crystallization above 140 °C. Furthermore, the melt‐crystallized blend with XylPr showed a higher crystallinity index and melting temperature than the melt‐crystallized blend without XylPr. This shows that XylPr promotes stereocomplex crystallization only when the blend of PLLA/PDLA with XylPr is directly crystallized from the molten state just after blending. © 2016 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Poly(lactic acid)–poly(ethylene glycol)–poly(lactic acid) (PLA‐PEG‐PLA)/SiO2 hybrid material is prepared by sol–gel method using tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and PLA‐PEG‐PLA as raw material. From Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra, the hydroxyl groups of the silica sol derived from partially hydrolysis of TEOS and the unhydrolyzed ethoxy groups of TEOS can react with PLA‐PEG‐PLA. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curves imply that the glass transition temperature (Tg) of PLA‐PEG‐PLA/SiO2 hybrid material is higher than that of PLA‐PEG‐PLA and increases with the increase of silica content. X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis results show that PLA‐PEG‐PLA and PLA‐PEG‐PLA/SiO2 hybrid material are both amorphous. Field scanning electron microscope (FSEM) photographs show that when PLA‐PEG‐PLA/SiO2 hybrid material has been degraded for 12 weeks in normal saline at 37°C, a three‐dimensional porous scaffold is obtained, which is available for cell growth and metabolism. Moreover, the hydroxyl (? OH) groups on SiO2 of PLA‐PEG‐PLA/SiO2 hybrid material could buffer the acidity resulted from the degradation of PLA, which is beneficial to proliferation of cell in tissue repairing. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) stereocomplex formation in isothermal conditions in the absence and presence of a nucleating agent was studied from a rheological point of view due to sensitivity of viscoelastic properties to structural changes during this process. PDLA was melt blended in low concentrations with PLLA to produce a stereocomplex. Amorphous samples were prepared and crystallization was carried out in a rheometer at high temperatures to simulate melt processing conditions. Stereocomplexation was explored over time by measuring rheological parameters in small deformation oscillatory shear mode at a low frequency using parallel plate geometry. Kinetic data obtained by this means was compared to data from calorimetric studies, showing a different trend depending on the characterization method. Moreover, after the completion of crystallization, final crystalline structure was probed over a wide range of frequencies to investigate the rheological modification role of PDLA on PLLA major component. Differences in rheological characteristics of asymmetric PLLA/PDLA blends as compared to neat PLLA were associated to the structural changes happening because of the formation of the stereocomplex. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this article, the spherulitic morphology and growth rate of the neat and plasticized poly(lactic acid) (PLA) with triphenyl phosphate (TPP) were compared and analyzed by polarizing optical microscopy with hot stage at a temperature range of 100?142°C. The spherulitic morphology of the neat PLA underwent a series of changes such as the typical Maltese Cross at less than 132°C, the disappearance of the Maltese Cross at 133°C, the irregular and distorted spherulites at higher than 134 and 142°C, respectively. For plasticized PLA, the spherulitic morphology exhibited the same changes as neat PLA, but these changes were shifted to lower temperature when compared with neat PLA. In the case of the spherulitic growth, neat PLA had the maximum value of 0.28 μm/s at 132°C, and plasticized PLA had higher values than that of neat PLA. Further analysis based on the Lauritzen–Hoffman theory was presented and results showed that the values of nucleation parameter Kg increased with TPP content. The crystallization behavior of PLA was analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction. The results showed that the degree of crystallinity of plasticized PLA markedly increased when compared with neat PLA sharply with the incorporation of plasticizer. The crystallization kinetics for the neat and plasticized PLA under isothermal crystallization at 114°C was described by the Avrami equation and the Avrami exponent is close to 2, implying that the crystallization mechanism did not change. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Applying the step potential method, the effect of parameters such as solvent, potential, electrolyte and monomer concentration on the nucleation and growth processes of poly(thiophene) on Pt electrode in tetrabuthylammonium hexafluorophosphate-acetonitrile or dichloromethane has been studied. The j/t transients were generally fitted by means of a mathematical equation that considers different contributions. In acetonitrile the j/t transient (0<t<30 s) present three contributions corresponding to the following mechanisms: two-dimensional instantaneous nucleation (IN2D), three-dimensional progressive nucleation (PN3DCT) under charge transfer control and three-dimensional progressive nucleation (PN3Ddif) under diffusion control. Similar results were obtained in dichloromethane, but in this case the 3DCT nucleus presented an instantaneous nucleation mechanism (IN3Dct). A second wave has been observed in the j/t transients obtained in CH3CN at t>30 s, which was fitted by a mathematical equation that included two contributions corresponding to a PN3DCT and PN3Ddif mechanisms. In general, the charge associated to each contribution depended on the solvent, the monomer and electrolyte concentration and the applied potential. However, the PN3DCT (CH3CN) or IN3DCT (CH2Cl2) mechanisms were always the more important contributions. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of the deposits morphology are in agreement with the nucleation and growth models that are proposed by this method. 相似文献
