Cellulose nanocrystal reinforced oxidized natural rubber nanocomposites.
Natural rubber (NR) latex particles were oxidized using KMnO4 as oxidant to promote the insertion of hydroxyl groups in the surface polyisoprene chains. Different degrees of oxidation were investigated. Both unoxidized and oxidized NR (ONR) latex were used to prepare nanocomposite films reinforced with cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) by casting/evaporation. The oxidation of NR was carried out to ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Chrysotile/Polyethylene Nanocomposites
Polyethylene/chrysotile nanocomposites with different amount (0.4 to 6.7 wt%) of filler were prepared by in situ polymerization method using the metallocene Cp2ZrCl2 as catalyst and methylaluminoxane (MAO) as co-catalyst. Previous to polymerization, raw chrysotile was treated by three different methods that used thermal treatment and acid leaching. In method A, raw chrysotile was treated therma...
متن کاملNanocomposites of Poly(lactic Acid) Reinforced with Cellulose Nanofibrils
A chemo-mechanical method was used to prepare cellulose nanofibrils dispersed uniformly in an organic solvent. Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG 1000) was added to the matrix as a compatibilizer to improve the interfacial interaction between the hydrophobic poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and the hydrophilic cellulose nanofibrils. The composites obtained by solvent casting methods from N,N-Dimethylacetamide (...
متن کاملProcessing and analysis of chitosan nanocomposites reinforced with chitin whiskers and tannic acid as a crosslinker.
Chitosan film reinforced with nano-sized chitin whiskers and crosslinked using tannic acid was synthesized by the casting-vaporation method. The mechanical and physicochemical properties of several film samples (consisting of different ratio of chitin and tannic acid) were compared with neat chitosan. Tensile tests show that the addition of chitin improves the nanocomposite films mechanical pro...
متن کاملStarch-based nanocomposites reinforced with flax cellulose nanocrystals
In this study, the cellulose crystals, prepared by acid hydrolysis of flax fiber, consisted of slender rods with lengths ranging from 100 to 500 nm and diameters ranging from 10 to 30 nm, respectively. After mixing the suspension of flax cellulose nanocrystals (FCNs) and plasticized starch (PS), the nanocomposite films were obtained by the casting method. The effects of FCNs loading on the morp...
