Reprocessing of PLA/Graphene Nanoplatelets Nanocomposites
This work reports a study on the effect of multiple reprocessing on the properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) filled with graphene nanoplatelets (GnP) compared to the melt reprocessed neat polymeric matrix. In particular, morphological, X-Ray Diffraction and Micro-Raman analyses, intrinsic viscosity measurements, thermal, rheological and mechanical tests were carried out on materials reprocesse...
متن کاملMicro- to nanoscale structure of biocompatible PLA-PEO-PLA hydrogels.
We observe large-scale structures in hydrogels of poly(l-lactide)-poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(l-lactide) (PLLA-PEO-PLLA) ranging in size from a few hundred nanometers to several micrometers. These structures are apparent through both ultra-small angle scattering (USAS) techniques and confocal microscopy. The hydrogels showed power law scattering in the USAS regime, which is indicative of scatteri...
متن کاملFunctional Properties of Biodegradable Nanocomposites from Poly Lactic Acid (PLA)
Nanocomposite composed of organoclay(Cloisite 20A-C20A) and Poly lactic acid (PLA) was prepared by solvent casting method. Physical, mechanical, thermal, barrier and microstructure properties of the composite were studied. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and scannin...
متن کاملFunctional Properties of Biodegradable Nanocomposites from Poly Lactic Acid (PLA)
Nanocomposite composed of organoclay )Cloisite 20A-C20A) and Poly lactic acid (PLA) was prepared by solvent casting method. Physical, mechanical, thermal, barrier and microstructure properties of the composite were studied. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images revealed that the diffraction peak of nanoclay shifted to lower angles and the d-spacing betwe...
متن کاملPolymer-clay nanocomposites: a multiscale molecular modeling approach.
A hierarchical procedure bridging the gap between atomistic and mesoscopic simulation for polymer-clay nanocomposite (PCN) design is presented. The dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) is adopted as the mesoscopic simulation technique, and the interaction parameters of the mesoscopic model are estimated by mapping the corresponding energy values obtained from atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) si...
