Natural hydrolytic ageing of PA6 and bio-reinforced composites

Hydrolytic ageing or hydrolysis is the destruction of chemical bonds by action water. Among polymers most affected are polyamides, since PA6 hygroscopic, due to amide groups. with its interesting technical applications could be found in humid environments, which probably impedes durability. The estimation modifications that undergo has attracted attention several research subjects, have recorded a deterioration mechanical and thermal properties. objective this study compare hydrolytic composites reinforced peanut shell powder (PSP), olive pomace (OPP), plaster (PL). aim evaluate impact reinforcements on composite. weight changes, structural properties, morphology were monitored related modification polymer encountered during process thanks gain, DRX SEM methods.
