Nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) reinforced poly(caprolactone) (PCL) composites were prepared by compression molding. The NCC content varied from 2 to 10% by weight. NCC played a significant role in improving the mechanical properties of PCL. The addition of 5 wt % NCC caused a 62% improvement of the tensile strength (TS) value of PCL films. Similarly, tensile modulus (TM) values were also improved by NCC reinforcement but elongation at break (Eb) values decreased montonically with NCC content. The water vapor permeability (WVP) of PCL was 1.51 g·mm/m2·day·kPa, whereas PCL films containing 5 wt % NCC showed a WVP of 1.22 g·mm/m2·day·kPa. The oxygen transmission rate (OTR) and carbon dioxide transmission rate (CO2TR) of PCL decreased by 19 and 17%, respectively, with 5 wt % NCC incorporation. It was found that the mechanical and barrier properties of both PCL and PCL‐NCC composites further improved with 10 kGy gamma irradiation treatment. The combination of NCC and radiation significantly increased the TS, TM, and Eb (by 156, 123, and 80%, respectively, compared to untreated PCL). The WVP, OTR, and CO2TR decreased by 25–35% with respect to untreated PCL. The surface and interface morphologies of the PCL‐NCC composites were studied by scanning electron microscopy and suggested homogeneous distribution of NCC within the PCL matrix. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Methylcellulose (MC) films were prepared by casting from its 1% aqueous solution containing 0.5% vegetable oil, 0.25% glycerol, and 0.025% Tween®80. Poly(caprolactone) (PCL) films were prepared by compression molding from its granules. Biodegradable composite films were fabricated using MC film as reinforcing agent and PCL as the matrix material by compression molding. One layer of MC film was reinforced with two layers of PCL films. The MC content in the composites was varied from 10 to 50% by weight. Mechanical, barrier, and degradation properties of PCL, MC, and composite films were evaluated. The values of puncture strength (PS), puncture deformation (PD), viscoelasticity (Y) coefficient, and water vapor permeability (WVP) of the composites (50% MC content) were found to be 124.3 N/mm, 3.2 mm, 31%, and 2.6 g·mm/m2·day·kPa, respectively. Oxygen transmission rate (OTR) of PCL, MC, and composites (50% MC) were found to be 175, 25, 22 cc/m2/d, respectively, which indicated that composite films showed significantly lower OTR than PCL films. Degradation tests of the composite films (50% MC) were performed for 6 weeks in aqueous medium (at 25°C), and it was found that composites lost its mass slowly with time. After 6 weeks, mass and PS of the composites were decreased to 13.4 and 12%, respectively. Composite interface was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The MC film had good adhesion with PCL matrix during compression molding and suggested strong interface of the composite system. SEM image after 6 weeks of degradation showed some openings in the interface and revealed slow degradation of the MC films. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012  相似文献

Carbon nanotube‐reinforced silicon carbide composites (CNT/SiC) produced by direct infiltration of matrix into a porous CNT arrays have been demonstrated to possess a unique microstructure and excellent micro‐mechanical properties. However, the thickness of the array preforms is usually very small, typically less than 2 mm. Therefore, fabrication of macroscopic CNT/SiC composites by chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) process requires that the nanoscale fillers could form macroscopic architectures with an open pore network. Here, this study reports an experimental strategy for the fabrication of SiC matrix composites reinforced by CNT based on an ice‐segregation‐induced self‐assembly (ISISA) technique. Macroscopic CNT aerogel with well‐defined macroporous network was produced by ISISA technique and was subsequently infiltrated by SiC in a CVI reactor. After five CVI cycles, the porosity of as‐fabricated composites was 11.6±0.3% and the machined specimens exhibited lamellar structure with parallel lamellaes intersected at discrete angles. By observed, there are in fact five different representative anisotropic macrostructures, the compressive strengths of these five different loading modes with respect to lamella orientation were 933±55, 619±34, 200±45, 199±21, and 297±41 MPa, respectively, and the failure mechanisms were attributed to the anisotropic nature of the macrostructures. Energy dissipation toughening mechanism at the nanoscale such as CNT pull‐out was observed and the phase composition of the fabricated materials included β‐SiC, CNT, and SiO2.  相似文献

In the medical industry, ionizing radiation has attracted increasing interest in recent years for the sterilization of biomedical materials due to its high effectiveness at relatively low cost and simple operation. In the study reported here, silk fibroin (SF) fiber was used to prepare novel reinforced poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) biocomposites, and the effect of electron beam irradiation on both non‐isothermal and isothermal crystallization kinetics of the SF/PCL biocomposites was investigated. The models of Ozawa treatment, Avrami analysis and regime theory of crystal growth are applicable for describing the non‐isothermal and isothermal crystallization kinetics of the irradiated PCL and SF/PCL composites. Compared with non‐irradiated PCL and SF/PCL composites, the irradiated specimens exhibit the same crystallization regime (regime II) and similar lateral surface free energy (σ), except for smaller fold surface free energy (σe) and work of chain folding (q). The crosslinked PCL network formed in the irradiation process can act as a nucleation agent and accelerate the primary crystallization of PCL. However, the restriction effect of the crosslinked PCL network on the molecular chain mobility will reduce the overall crystallization rate of PCL, and this restriction effect appears stronger in the non‐isothermal crystallization process than in the isothermal crystallization process.

The Starch–Casein‐based edible films containing with or without neem (Melia azadirachta) extract was prepared. The neem based free films were also heat pressed and all of them were assessed for inhibition of pathogenic organisms namely E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes, Pseudomonas spp., and Salmonella, using disc diffusion assay. The Glass‐transition temperature (Tg) and thermal properties of the films were determined with the help of DSC and DMA. Tensile strength (TS), elongation at break (EAB), water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), and oxygen transmission rate (OTR) of the films were also determined. Incorporation of neem extract to edible film did not affect any of the physical properties except microbial, and the films were effective in inhibiting the growth of pathogens, since the inhibition zones varied from 15 mm as large as 24 mm. However, the heat‐pressed films containing neem extract led higher the Tg, TS, and modulus, while the EAB was marginally affected, indicating the toughening of the film and as expected, the heat pressing of films decreased the WVTR and marginally affected OTR. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this study, a series of T300 carbon fiber‐reinforced polyimide (CFRPI) composites were prepared by laminating premolding polyimide (PI) films with unidirectional carbon fiber (CF) layers. On the basis of PI systems design, the effect of CF volume fraction, processing conditions, and PI molecular structure on the properties of CFRPI composites was studied in detail. In addition, two kinds of nano‐particles, including carbon nano‐tube (CNT) and SiO2 were filled into the premolding PI films with different concentrations. And the effect of nano‐particles on the properties of CFRPI composites was also investigated. The surface characteristic of T300 CF was measured by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The properties of premolding PI film and CFRPI composites were measured by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMTA), SANS testing machine, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and so forth. These experimental results showed that the properties of CFRPI composites were mainly affected by the premolding PI film and molding condition. The change of CF volume fraction from 55% to 65% took little effect on the mechanical properties of CFRPI composites. In addition, the incorporation of nano‐particle SiO2 could further improve the properties of CFRPI composites, but CNT hardly improved the properties of CFRPI composites. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This study presents the preparation of electrically conducting poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL)/multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composites with very low percolation threshold (pc). The method involves solution blending of PCL and MWCNT in the presence of commercial PCL beads. The PCL beads were added into high viscous PCL/MWCNT mixture during evaporation of solvent. Here, the used commercial PCL polymer beads act as an ‘excluded volume’ in the solution blended PCL/MWCNT region. Thus, the effective concentration of the MWCNT dramatically increases in the solution blended region and a strong interconnected continuous conductive network path of CNT−CNT is assumed throughout the matrix phase with the addition of PCL bead which plays a crucial role to improve the electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) and electrical conductivity at very low MWCNT loading. Thus, high EMI SE value (∼23.8 dB) was achieved at low MWCNT loading (1.8 wt %) in the presence of 70 wt % PCL bead and the high electrical conductivity of ∼2.49×10−2 S cm−1 was achieved at very low MWCNT loading (∼0.15 wt %) with 70 wt % PCL bead content in the composites. The electrical conductivity gradually increased with increasing the PCL bead concentration, as well as, MWCNT loading in the composites. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Partially acetylated cellulose nanofibers (CNF) were chemically extracted from sisal fibers and the performance of those CNF as nanofillers for polylactide (PLA) for food packaging applications was evaluated. Three PLA nanocomposites; PLA/CNF (cellulose nanofibers), PLA/CNC (nanocrystalline cellulose), and PLA/C30B (CloisiteTM 30B, an organically modified montmorillonite clay) were prepared and their properties were evaluated. It was found that CNF reinforced composites showed a larger decrease on oxygen transmission rate (OTR) than the clay‐based composites; (PLA/CNF 1% nanocomposite showed a 63% of reduction at 23°C and 50% RH while PLA/C30B 1% showed a 26% decrease) and similar behavior on terms of water vapor barrier properties with 46 and 43%, respectively of decrease on water vapor transmission rate at 23°C and 50% RH (relative humidity). In terms of mechanical and thermomechanical properties, CNF‐based nanocomposites showed better performance than clay‐based composites without affecting significantly the optical transparency. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Alumina (Al2O3) based porous composites, reinforced with zirconia (ZrO2), 3 and 8 mol% Y2O3 stabilized ZrO2 (YSZ) and 4 wt% carbon nanotube (CNT) are processed via spark plasma sintering. The normalized linear shrinkage during sintering process of Al2O3-based composite shows minimum value (19.2–20.4%) for CNT reinforced composites at the temperature between 1650 °C and 575 °C. Further, the combined effect of porosity, phase-content and its crystallite size in sintered Al2O3-based porous composite have elicited lowest thermal conductivity of 1.2 Wm−1K−1 (Al2O3-8YSZ composite) at 900 °C. Despite high thermal conductivity of CNT (∼3000 Wm−1K−1), only a marginal thermal conductivity increase (∼1.4 times) to 7.3–13.4 Wm−1K−1 was observed for CNT reinforced composite along the longitudinal direction at 25 °C. The conventional models overestimated the thermal conductivity of CNT reinforced composites by up to ∼6.7 times, which include the crystallite size, porosity, and interfacial thermal resistance of Al2O3, YSZ and, CNT. But, incorporation of a new process induced CNT-alignment factor, the estimated thermal conductivity (of <6.6 Wm−1K−1) closely matched with the experimental values. Moreover, the high thermal conductivity (<76.1 Wm−1K−1) of the CNT reinforced porous composites along transverse direction confirms the process induced alignment of CNT in the spark plasma sintered composites.  相似文献

To study the radiation effect on the physical, thermal, mechanical and degradable properties of biodegradable polymer Bionolle (chemosynthetic polyester poly(1,4-butylene succinate)), Bionolle films prepared by compression molding process and were irradiated with electron beam (EB) radiation of different doses. Gel content was found to increase with increase of radiation dose. Tensile strength of Bionolle was enhanced when Bionolle film was exposed under 20 kGy radiation. The loss of tensile strength of both unirradiated and irradiated Bionolle is 70% and 8% due to thermal aging at 70°C for 30 days. Both irradiated and unirradiated films of Bionolle were subjected to different degradation test in compost (soil burial), enzyme and storage degradation both in outdoor and indoors conditions. The loss of weight due to soil (compost) degradation test decreased with increase of radiation dose. The loss of weights of irradiated samples were found to be very less within the first three months of compost degradation. After 120 days, tensile strength of the Bionolle films irradiated at 20 kGy and 100 kGy were 68 MPa and 40 MPa, respectively, compared to the value (30 MPa) of the unirradiated Bionolle samples. Loss of tensile strength of irradiated Bionolle due to storage degradation like in roof, ground and indoors was minimum compared to unirradiated Bionolle. The weight loss due to enzymatic degradation was found to be decreased with increase of radiation dose. The tensile strength of jute reinforced Bionolle composites (23 wt.-% jute content) irradiated at 20 kGy was found to be higher (22%) than that of an unirradiated composite.  相似文献

Poly(lactic acid)/poly(?‐caprolactone)/carbon nanotube (PLA/PCL/CNT) nanocomposites (NCs) were melt‐processed in a conventional industrial‐like twin‐screw extruder maintaining a constant PLA/PCL 80/20 wt. ratio. CNTs located in the thermodynamically favored PCL phase and, as a result, the “sea–island” morphology of the unfilled blend was replaced by a more continuous PCL dispersed phase in the ternary NCs. Rheological and electrical percolation took place at the same CNT contents (over 1.2 wt %) that TEM images suggest continuity of the PCL phase. The electrical and the low‐strain mechanical behaviors upon CNT addition were similar in the reference binary PLA/CNT and ternary PLA/PCL/CNT NCs. In the percolated NCs, the conductivity became 106–107 times higher than in the insulating compositions, while the Young modulus increased linearly upon the addition of CNT (12% increase at 4.9 wt % loading). Moreover, all the PLA/PCL/CNT NCs showed a ductile behavior (elongation at break >130%) similar to that of the unfilled PLA/PCL blend (140%), in contrast to the brittle behavior of binary PLA/CNT NCs. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Self‐reinforced poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) composites were prepared from bi‐component PCL yarns composed of PCL drawn fibers and PCL matrix by a combined process of yarns winding and hot‐pressing. Series of PCL polymers with different melting points were synthesized and used as matrix. PCL melt‐spun fibers were subject to different draw ratios and functioned as reinforcement. During the process of hot‐pressing, the matrix with low melting points melted and bonded the unmelted drawn fibers together creating self‐reinforced composites, the morphologies of which were examined by scanning electron microscope. Tensile testing of the composites was performed along the longitudinal and transverse directions separately. The longitudinal tensile test results showed that the Young's modulus and strength at break of the self‐reinforced composites were 59% and 250% higher than that of pure PCL. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Chitosan films were prepared by casting from its 1% (w/w) solution. Tensile strength (TS), tensile modulus (TM), and elongation at break (Eb%) of chitosan films were found to be 30 MPa, 450 MPa, and 8%, respectively. Silane monomer (3-aminopropyl tri-methoxy silane) (1–7%, w/w) was added into the chitosan solution (1%, w/w), and films were casted. The highest TS (38 MPa) and TM (620 MPa) values were found at 5% (w/w) silane content films. Polycaprolactone (PCL) films were prepared by compression molding; the values of TS, TM, and Eb of PCL films were found to be 12 MPa, 226 MPa, and 70%, respectively. Using chitosan and silane containing chitosan films, PCL-based tri-layer films were prepared by compression molding. Chitosan (also silane-incorporated chitosan) content in the tri-layer films varied from 10 to 50% by weight. The values of TS and TM of the silane containing composites were found to be 21 and 410 MPa, respectively, which is significantly higher (40% TS and 34% TM) than control composites. Molecular interactions due to silane addition were supported by FT-IR analysis. The surface of the films and the interface of the tri-layer films were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM). © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012  相似文献

Self‐reinforced poly(?‐caprolactone) (PCL) composites were prepared by dispersing a homologous nucleating agent within the PCL matrix through melt mixing. Coalesced PCL, featuring more orderly chain arrangements, acted as the nucleating agent leading to improvement of crystallization for the melt PCL matrix. Non‐isothermal melt crystallization behavior, isothermal melt crystallization kinetics, spherulitic morphology and the crystal structure of neat PCL and the PCL self‐reinforced composites were studied in detail. The results indicated that both non‐isothermal and isothermal melt crystallization of PCL composites were enhanced significantly by the homologous nucleating agent, while the crystallization mechanism and crystal structures remained unchanged. The results of tensile mechanical tests showed that the Young's modulus of the composites was improved by up to 77% with the incorporation of 20 wt% nucleating agent. Biocompatibility tests demonstrated that the cells could adhere to and proliferate well on the surface of the self‐reinforced PCL composites. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

Cellulose-based composites containing various amounts of SBA-15 mesoporous silica were prepared by NMMO-technology, and their morphologies, mechanical properties, permeability for oxygen and water vapor were studied. The investigation suggested that both the modified and unmodified mesoporous silica materials can improve the elongation at break of the cellulose films. However, the incorporation of the mesoporous silica materials can reduce the tensile strength of the films, and the modified one has less effect on that than the unmodified one. The composites films with rational mechanical properties have adjustable oxygen permeability (7.90 × 10?15–94.6 × 10?15 cm3 · cm/cm2 · s · Pa) and water vapor permeability (7.12 × 10?13–4.10 × 10?13 g · cm/cm2 · s · Pa).  相似文献

Multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) were compounded with PVC by a melt blending process based on fusion behaviors of PVC. The effects of CNT content on the flexural and tensile properies of the PVC/CNT composites were evaluated in order to optimize the CNT content. The optimized CNT‐reinforced PVC was used as a matrix in the manufacture of wood‐plastic composites. Flexural, electrical, and thermal properties of the PVC/wood‐flour composites were evaluated as a function of matrix type (nonreinforced vs. CNT‐reinforced). The experimental results indicated that rigid PVC/wood‐flour composites with properties similar to those of solid wood can be made by using CNT‐reinforced PVC as a matrix. The CNT‐reinforced PVC did not influence the electrical and thermal conductivity of the PVC/wood‐flour composites. J. VINYL ADDIT. TECHNOL., 2008. © 2008 Society of Plastics Engineers.  相似文献

Graphene‐nanoplateles (Gr) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) reinforced epoxy based composites were fabricated using ultrasonication, a strong tool for effective dispersion of Gr/CNTs in epoxy. The effect of individual addition of two different nanofillers (Gr and CNT) in epoxy matrix, for a range of nanofiller content (0.1–1 wt %), has been investigated in this study. This study compares mechanical and thermomechanical behavior of Gr and CNT reinforced epoxy. Gr reinforcement offers higher improvement in strength, Young's modulus, and hardness than CNT, at ≤0.2 wt %. However, mode‐I fracture toughness shows different trend. The maximum improvement in fracture toughness observed for epoxy‐Gr composite was 102% (with 0.3 wt % loading of Gr) and the same for epoxy‐CNT composite was 152% (with 0.5 wt % loading of CNT). Thorough microstructural studies are performed to evaluate dispersion, strengthening, and toughening mechanisms, active with different nanofillers. The results obtained from all the studies are thoroughly analyzed to comprehend the effect of nanofillers, individually, on the performance of the composites in structural applications. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Supramolecular crosslinked FeII‐terpyridine cellulose nanocrystals (Fe‐CTP) were prepared by surface modification of cellulose nanocrystals with 4′‐chloro‐2,2′:6′,2″‐terpyridine and subsequent reaction with Fe(II)SO4. The prepared complex was characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and measuring its electrical properties at temperatures from 25 to 70°C. Use of Fe‐CTP at loadings from 1% to 10% (wt. ratio) in nanocomposites with polycaprolactone polymer was investigated; the nanocomposites were characterized regarding their electrical properties, which studied using broadband AC‐relaxation spectroscopy in the frequency range between 0.1 Hz and 1 MHz. The results were compared to that of PCL nanocomposites containing multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT). Variation in real and imaginary parts of permittivity has been explained on the basis of interfacial polarization of fillers in the polymer medium. The percolation limit of the conductive CNT and Fe‐CTP as studied by ac conductivity measurements has also been reported. Fe‐CTP showed conductivity values in the range of semiconductors. PCL/Fe‐CTP nanocomposites showed conductivity values from 1.98 × 10−11 to 3.76 × 10−6 while PCL/CNT nanocomposites showed conductivity values from 1.4 × 10−10 to 3.67 × 10−4 S/m for 1–10 wt% CNT content.

The friction and wear behavior of polyimide (PI) composites reinforced with carbon nanotube (CNT) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) were comparatively evaluated under dry sliding, water‐, oil‐ or alkali‐lubricated condition. The wear mechanisms of the composites were also discussed. Results indicate that, when comparison with the dry friction situation, PI‐based composites results lower friction coefficients and wear rates under oil‐ or alkali‐lubricated condition. The lowest wear rate of the CNT/PTFE/PI composite is recorded as 1.2 × 10−6 mm3/Nm during the composite sliding in alkali, which is only about 40% of the value sliding under dry friction condition. The worn surface of neat PI under dry sliding is characterized by severe adhesive wear, whereas abrasive wear is the main character for CNT/PTFE/PI composites. The worn surfaces of CNT/PTFE/PI composites sliding in oil or alkali lubricated condition are smoother than those under dry or water condition. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) has been reinforced with different content of PET up to 25 phr. Vulcanization of prepared composites as will as the unreinforced ones have been induced by ionizing radiation of accelerated electron beam of varying dose up to 150 kGy. Evaluations of the vulcanized composites have been followed up through the measurement of mechanical, physical and thermal properties. Also, scanning electron microscope (SEM) was performed. Mechanical properties, namely tensile strength (TS) and hardness were found to increase with the increase of irradiation dose as well as the increase in the content of PET up to 25 phr. Also, elongation at break (ε b) was found to decrease with the increase of irradiation dose; however, the decrease in εb is not consistence with the increase in fibers loading. Young’s modulus (E) and tensile modulus at 25% elongation (E25) were found to increase with the increase of irradiation dose and fiber loading up to 20 phr. Also, the volume fraction of swollen rubber increases as irradiation dose and/or fiber content increased; it was more influenced by irradiation rather than fiber loading. Anisotropic swelling increased with irradiation and fiber loading up to 20 phr. SEM photomicrograph showed that irradiation causes adhesion between PET fiber and NBR where less pulling out and less pitting on the surface were observed. The thermal properties of the composite irradiated at 100 kGy reveal that the activation energy (E a) increases up to 10 phr fiber content. When the composite that contains 10 phr fiber irradiated at doses higher than100 kGy, Ea decreased.  相似文献
