Self-Reinforced Poly(Lactic Acid) (Pla) Composites With Enhanced Impact Performance, Tensile Properties And Heat Resistance
20TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPOSITE MATERIALS(2015)
摘要
The inherent brittleness and poor thermal resistance of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) are two main challenges towards a wider industrial application of this bioplastic. In the present work, through the development of self-reinforced PLA (SR-PLA) or "all-PLA" composites, the high brittleness and low heat deflection temperature (HDT) of PLA have been overcome, while simultaneously improving the tensile strength and modulus of SR-PLA. The obtained composites are fully biobased, recyclable and under the right conditions compostable. For the creation of SR-PLA composites, first a tape extrusion process was optimized to ensure superior mechanical properties. The results show that SR-PLA composites exhibited enhanced moduli (2.5 times) and tensile strengths (2 times) and showed 14 times increase in impact energy compared to neat PLA. Finally, the HDT of SR-PLA was also increased by about 26 degrees C compared to neat PLA, which is mainly derived from the increase in modulus and crystallinity.
