Sisal fiber (SF) surface modification was carried out by grafting with methyl methacrylate (MMA) using cerium and ammonium nitrate as initiator. The effects of reaction time, monomer, and initiator concentration on the grafting parameters were systematically investigated. The results showed that MMA was successfully grafted onto the sisal fiber surface. The PMMA‐grafted sisal fibers were melt blended with polypropylene (PP) and then injection molded. The PP/SF composites were characterized by means of thermal analysis, mechanical testing, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, and SEM examination. PMMA grafted onto the surface of SF enhanced the intermolecular interaction between the reinforcing SF and PP matrix, improved the dispersion of SF in the PP matrix, and promoted the formation of β‐crystalline PP. These enhanced the thermal stability and mechanical properties of PP/SF composites. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 88: 1055–1064, 2003 相似文献

The effects of hybrid fillers on the electrical conductivity and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) of polyamide 6 (PA6)/polypropylene (PP) immiscible polymer blends were investigated. Carbon black (CB) and steam exploded sisal fiber (SF) were used as fillers. CB was coated on the surface of SF, and this was exploded by water steam to form carbon black modified sisal fiber (CBMSF). CB/SF/PA6/PP composites were prepared by melt compounding, and its electromagnetic SE was tested in low‐frequency and high‐frequency ranges. We observed that SF greatly contributed to the effective decrease in the percolation threshold of CB in the PA6/PP matrix and adsorbed carbon particles to form a conductive network. Furthermore, an appropriate CB/SF ratio was important for achieving the best shielding performance. The results indicate that CBMSF was suitable for use as electronic conductive fillers and the CB/SF/PA6/PP composites could be used for the purpose of EMI shielding. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.

Mechanical,thermal, and water absorption properties of melamine–formaldehyde‐treated sisal fiber containing poly(lactic acid) composites 下载免费PDF全文
The present study focuses on the melamine–formaldehyde (MF) coating ratio and silanization of PLA/sisal composites. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was melt blended with short sisal fiber with and without MF resin coating. MF was applied at different weight ratios (sisal:MF = 1:1; 1:3, and 1:5) to coat the untreated or silanized sisal fibers which were incorporated up to 20 parts per hundred resin (phr) amount in PLA. PLA/sisal composites were produced by compression molding. It was found that the sisal:MF coating ratio at 1:1 by weight improved the tensile strength and tensile modulus of the composite with 10 phr sisal by 4% and 57%, respectively, compared to the virgin PLA. The initial and final decomposition (Ti) and (Tf) of PLA with untreated sisal were changed from 330.8 and 367.1 to 336.2 and 370.4 °C, respectively, after MF‐coating (sisal:MF weight ratio = 1:1). This enhancement in thermal stability was attributed to the strong interaction between the MF and sisal fiber. The water absorption of PLA/MF–sisal composites slightly decreased with increasing sisal:MF ratio. This is due to the fact that the MF‐coating substantially reduced the hydrophilic properties of sisal. Moreover, FTIR spectra and SEM images proved that sisal fibers were coated by MF resin successfully. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2018 , 135, 45681. 相似文献

β‐isotactic polypropylene (β‐iPP) cylindritic crystals were produced in homogeneous iPP fiber–matrix composites and heterogeneous polyamide (PA)–iPP fiber–matrix composites under different sample preparation conditions. The melt recrystallization behaviors of the β‐iPP crystals obtained in the homogeneous and heterogeneous composites were studied by optical microscopy. The experimental results show that, by heating the sample to 180 °C, the birefringence contributed by the iPP crystals in both α‐ and β‐forms disappears completely. During the cooling process, the β‐iPP crystals in the homogeneous composite appear again, while the iPP in the heterogeneous composite crystallizes in its α‐form. This demonstrates the different origins of the β‐iPP cylindrites in the homogeneous and heterogeneous composites. While the β‐iPP cylindrites in the heterogeneous composite are associated with the sample preparation procedure, the β‐iPP cylindrites in the homogeneous composite are produced by recrystallization of the molten but incompletely relaxed iPP fibers. In situ observation of the melt recrystallization process shows that the molten iPP oriented fibers crystallize first during the cooling process at relatively higher temperature in the α‐form. Abundant randomly dispersed β‐iPP nuclei formed at the surface of the recrystallized iPP fibers, which generate the β‐iPP cylindrites. Copyright © 2012 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Thermoplastic composites were made from polypropylene (PP) and long sisal fibers (SF) by using different processing techniques. Four sets of composites specimens were made with a 60/40 (wt/wt) SF/PP ratio: the first set was made by melt‐blending PP and SF and compression molding 2‐mm‐thick flat sheets; a second set was made by melt‐blending PP, SF, and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MA‐g‐PP); the third set was made by compression molding knitted SF yarns, preimpregnated with PP, between PP sheets; the fourth set was also made by compression molding knitted SF yarns, preimpregnated with diluted MA‐g‐PP, between PP sheets. The bidirectional array of fibers, containing 60% of SF well‐impregnated with a small quantity of MA‐g‐PP, increases the flexural modulus by 600%, the tensile modulus by 475%, and the tensile strength by 300% compared with unfilled PP. The composites sheets were successfully thermoformed with small wall thickness reductions to obtain a three‐dimensional (3D) shape with very low forming energy, outstanding mechanical properties, and excellent surface finish.

The current research aims to develop a sound-absorbing material from polypropylene (PP) and sisal fibers (SFs). The study explores the foam processability of PP/SF composites with near-critical fiber length, employing supercritical CO2-assisted batch foaming technology. Optimized foam processing conditions were determined to be 145°C, 100 bar, and 15 min saturation time. These conditions resulted in foams with the lowest density, maximum volume expansion ratio and an overall microcellular structure. Notably, increasing the fiber concentration significantly enhanced the compressive properties, exhibiting a remarkable 3000% improvement with the addition of 40 wt% SFs. Dynamic mechanical analysis further revealed improved dampening properties of the composites after foaming. Moreover, the incorporation of SFs led to an increase in the noise reduction coefficient, while foaming additionally improved the sound absorption properties. This renders the material highly applicable for soundproofing purposes. Thus, produced PP/SF microcellular foams offer properties that can potentially be used to produce lightweight structural components for acoustic absorption applications. 相似文献

为改善剑麻纤维(SF)与聚丙烯(PP)之间的相容性,在PP/SF复合材料中添加超支化聚酯(H101)、超支化环氧树脂(E102),研究了两种超支化聚合物(HBP)的热稳定性及对PP/SF复合材力学性能、熔体流动性和微观形貌的影响。热重分析表明,所使用的HBP均具有较好的热稳定性;扫描电子显微镜分析发现,HBP的加入使基体与纤维结合得更加紧密;力学性能测试表明,H101可不同程度地提高复合材料的拉伸、弯曲及冲击强度;E102可提高复合材料的拉伸及冲击强度,当E102含量为10%时,与PP/SF复合材料相比,冲击强度提高了72.24%。尽管HBP含量较高时复合材料的力学性能提高,但HBP会降低复合材料的熔体流动速率,选择HBP含量时需要综合考虑。 相似文献

Bio‐composites for structural applications: Poly‐l‐lactide reinforced with long sisal fiber bundles 下载免费PDF全文
Fully bio‐based and biodegradable composites were compression molded from unidirectionally aligned sisal fiber bundles and a polylactide polymer matrix (PLLA). Caustic soda treatment was employed to modify the strength of sisal fibers and to improve fiber to matrix adhesion. Mechanical properties of PLLA/sisal fiber composites improved with caustic soda treatment: the mean flexural strength and modulus increased from 279 MPa and 19.4 GPa respectively to 286 MPa and 22 GPa at a fiber volume fraction of Vf = 0.6. The glass transition temperature decreased with increasing fiber content in composites reinforced with untreated sisal fibers due to interfacial friction. The damping at the caustic soda‐treated fibers‐PLLA interface was reduced due to the presence of transcrystalline morphology at the fiber to matrix interface. It was demonstrated that high strength, high modulus sisal‐PLLA composites can be produced with effective stress transfer at well‐bonded fiber to matrix interfaces. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.

The technology of steam explosion was adopted to modify sisal fiber (SF) material and two different carbon particles, expanded graphite and conductive carbon black (CCB), were in situ coated on the surface of SF during steam explosion process. The DC conductivity and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (SE) of the modified SF/polypropylene (PP) composites were studied and the measurement of electromagnetic interference (EMI) SE was conducted in two frequency ranges of 400–1,000 MHz and 1–18 GHz. The experimental results showed that this novel coating technology could improve the SE of the modified SF/PP composites significantly, which has a strong dependence on the loadings of the expanded graphite modified sisal fiber (SF‐EG) and conductive carbon black modified sisal fiber (SF‐CCB). When the loadings of SF‐EG and SF‐CCB reached 50 wt%, the maximum values of the SE were 33 dB and 51 dB, respectively. For the modified SF/PP composites, the experimental EMI SE values are in good correlation with the theoretical calculation values in far field of electromagnetic radiation. POLYM.

Polypropylene (PP) fibers have been widely used to reinforce concrete footpaths as an alternative to steel mesh. The reinforcing effect of the PP fiber is directly proportional to its tensile strength and Young modulus. This research explored the feasibility of using an improved melt spinning and hot drawing process to produce virgin and recycled PP fibers of high mechanical properties in an industrial scale. Commercial grade granules of virgin PP, recycled PP and HPDE were mixed in different proportions in preparing five different types of fibers. All the fibers obtained high tensile strength and Young modulus. A relationship between the structural parameters and mechanical properties was then established. It was observed that the melt spinning and hot drawing process formed both α‐form and β‐form crystals in the PP fibers, and significantly improved crystallinity from about 50% to 80%. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The mechanical performance of short randomly oriented banana and sisal hybrid fiber reinforced polyester composites was investigated with reference to the relative volume fraction of the two fibers at a constant total fiber loading of 0.40 volume fraction (Vf), keeping banana as the skin material and sisal as the core material. A positive hybrid effect is observed in the flexural strength and flexural modulus of the hybrid composites. The tensile strength of the composites showed a positive hybrid effect when the relative volume fraction of the two fibers was varied, and maximum tensile strength was found to be in the hybrid composite having a ratio of banana and sisal 4 : 1. The impact strength of the composites was increased with increasing volume fraction of sisal. However, a negative hybrid effect is observed when the impact strength of the composites is considered. Keeping the relative volume fraction of the two fibers constant, that is, banana : sisal = 0.32 : 0.08 (i.e., 4 : 1), the fiber loading was optimized and different layering patterns were investigated. The impact strength of the composites was increased with fiber loading. Tensile and flexural properties were found to be better at 0.40 Vf. In the case of different layering patterns, the highest flexural strength was observed for the bilayer composites. Compared to other composites, the tensile properties were slightly higher for the composite having banana as the skin material and sisal as the core material. Scanning electron micrographs of the tensile and impact fracture surfaces of the hybrid composites having volume fraction 0.20 and 0.40 Vf were studied. The experimental tensile strength and tensile modulus of hybrid composites were compared with those of theoretical predictions. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Sisal fibers were used for the reinforcement of a polypropylene (pp) matrix. Composites consisting of polypropylene reinforced with short sisal fibers were prepared by melt‐mixing and solution‐mixing methods. A large amount of fiber breakage was observed during melt mixing. The fiber breakage analysis during composite preparation by melt mixing was carried out using optical microscopy. A polynomial equation was used to model the fiber‐length distribution during melt mixing. The experimental mechanical properties of sisal/PP composites were compared with existing theoretical models such as the modified rule of mixtures, parallel and series models, the Hirsch model, and the Bowyer–Baders model. The dependence of the tensile strength on the angle of measurement with respect to fiber orientation also was modeled. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 88: 602–611, 2003 相似文献

β‐Polypropylene composites containing calcium carbonate treated by titanate coupling agent (T‐CaCO3) and maleic anhydride grafted PP (PP‐g‐MAH) were prepared by melt compounding. The crystallization, morphology and mechanical properties of the composites were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, polarized light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and mechanical tests. It is found that both T‐CaCO3 and NT‐C are able to induce the formation of β‐phase, and NT‐C greatly increases the β content and decreases the spherulitic size of PP. PP‐g‐MAH facilitates the formation of β‐form PP and improves the compatibility between T‐CaCO3 and PP. Izod notched impact strength of β‐PP/T‐CaCO3 composite is higher than that of PP/T‐CaCO3 composite, indicating the synergistic toughening effect of T‐CaCO3 and β‐PP. Incorporation of PP‐g‐MAH into β‐PP/T‐CaCO3 composite further increases the content of β‐crystal PP and improves the impact strength and tensile strength when T‐CaCO3 concentration is below 5 wt%. The nonisothermal crystallization kinetics of β‐PP composites is well described by Jeziorny's and Mo's methods. It is found that NT‐C and T‐CaCO3 accelerate the crystallization rate of PP but the influence of PP‐g‐MAH on crystallization rate of β‐PP composite is marginal. POLYM.

This study examined the dynamic mechanical properties of sisal fiber reinforced unsaturated polyester (UP) toughened epoxy nanocomposites. The chemical structures changes in Epoxy, UP and UP toughened epoxy (Epoxy/UP) systems were characterized by Proton Nuclear magnetic resonance (1HNMR) spectroscopy. The morphological alterations of the nanocomposites were analyzed by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The untreated, chemically treated fibers, nanoclays, and the fiber reinforced Epoxy/UP nanocomposites were confirmed by FTIR spectrometer. The obtained mechanical results showed that alkali‐silane treated fibers improve the tensile strength (96%) and flexural strength (60%) of the Epoxy/UP nanocomposite than that of Epoxy/UP blend due to the strong interfacial bonding between the sisal fiber and matrix. The fracture toughness (KIC) and fracture energy (GIC) of treated sisal fiber reinforced DGEBA/UP/C30B nanocomposites found to be higher than that of untreated sisal fiber nanocomposites. The dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) reveals that the fiber reinforced Epoxy/UP nanocomposites contains 30 wt% treated fiber and 1 wt% nanoclays, exhibits the highest storage modulus and better glass transition temperature (Tg) among the other kind of systems. The surface morphology of the fibers, fractured surface of the resins and composites were confirmed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). POLYM.

Pretreatment of the sisal fiber (SF) grafting with L‐lactide (LA) monomer via a ring‐opening polymerization catalyzed by a Sn(II)‐based catalyst was performed to improve the interfacial adhesion between SF and poly (lactic acid) (PLA). Biocomposites from LA‐grafted SF (SF‐g‐LA) and PLA were prepared by compression molding with fiber weight fraction of 10, 20, 30, and 40%, and then were investigated in contrast with alkali‐treated sisal fiber (ASF) reinforced PLA composites and untreated SF reinforced PLA composites. PLA composites reinforced by half‐and‐half SF‐g‐LA/untreated SF (half SF‐g‐LA) were prepared and studied as well, considering the disadvantages of SF‐g‐LA. The results showed that both the tensile properties and flexural properties of the SF‐g‐LA reinforced PLA composites were improved noticeably as the introduction of SF‐g‐LA, compared with pure PLA, untreated SF reinforced PLA composites and ASF reinforced PLA composites. The mechanical properties of the half SF‐g‐LA reinforced PLA composites were not worse, even better in some aspects, than the SF‐g‐LA reinforced PLA composites. Fourier transform infrared analysis and differential scanning calorimetry analysis exhibited that both the chemical composition and crystal structure of the SFs changed after LA grafting. In addition, the fracture surface morphology of the composites was studied by scanning electron microscopy. The morphological studies demonstrated that a better adhesion between LA‐grafted SF and PLA matrix was achieved. POLYM. COMPOS., 37:802–809, 2016. © 2014 Society of Plastics Engineers 相似文献
