Jute fibers have immense potential to be used as natural fillers in polymeric matrices to prepare biocomposites. In the present study jute fibers were surface treated using two methods: i) alkali (NaOH) and ii) alkali followed by silane (NaOH+Silane) separately. Effects of surface treatments on jute fibers surface were characterized using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses. Further, the effects of surface treatments on jute fibers properties such as crystallinity index, thermal stability, and tensile properties were analyzed by X-ray diffraction method (XRD), thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), and single fiber tensile test respectively. The effects of surface treatment of jute fibers on interphase adhesion between of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and jute fibers were analyzed by performing single fiber pull-out test and was examined in terms of interfacial shear strength (IFSS) and critical fiber length.  相似文献

This paper reports a study on the thermal stability and flame-retardant properties of microencapsulated phase change materials (PCMs) with clay nano-particles (Clay-NPs) doped gelatin/sodium alginate shell. The novel microcapsules were fabricated by the technique of complex coacervation using gelatin and sodium alginate as the shell and PCM n-eicosane as the core. Their flame retardant property as well as their practicable thermal performances when incorporated into woven cotton fabrics by pad-dry-cure were investigated. Thermal storage/release properties of the prepared microcapsules were analyzed using DSC instrument. Thermal gravimetry (TG) analysis was performed to measure the thermal stability and surface morphology of the microcapsules was observed by means of optical microscopy and SEM. The DSC results indicated that the latent heat storage capacity of prepared microcapsules changed in range of 97-114 J/g. The microcapsules had spherical shape with particle sizes between 1.37 μm and 1.6 μm. The PCM microcapsules (PCMMs) and nano-composite PCM microcapsules (NCPCMMs) with clay-NPs doped gelatin/sodium alginate shell were found to have good potential for developing thermal comfort in textiles. Comparing with conventional PCMMs, NCPCMMs have significantly better thermal stability. Nano-composite structure of the NCPCMMs, in which clay-NPs doped in the polymeric shell structure, attributed to increase the shell thermal stability. Improved flame retardant properties of the cotton fabrics treated with NCPCMs were declared as a result of flame retardant tests. Thermo-regulating properties of the fabrics were proved by thermal history (THistory) measurement results from releasing heat from microcapsules.  相似文献

In this study, the surface functionalization of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers was achieved by depositing ZnO nanoparticles using thermal solvent coating. surface morphology, crystalline structure, surface chemistry, thermal stability and washing stability of the ZnO coated PAN fibers were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier transform Infra red spectroscopy (FT-IR), Thermo-gravimetric analyses (TGA) and washing stability test, respectively. In addition, the weight changes after coating and washing were studied at different coating and washing conditions. The SEM images revealed that the ZnO was well coated on the surface of the PAN fibers and the coating was obviously affected by the experimental temperature. The FT-IR spectra indicated the chemical features of the deposited ZnO nanostructures. The XRD patterns showed that there was a typical crystalline structure of ZnO nanogains formed on the PAN fibers after coating. The TGA results revealed that the thermal stability of the PAN fibers was improved by the ZnO coating. The experimental results of washing stability revealed the effect of temperature on the washing stability. Weight measurements indicated that the amount of ZnO deposited on PAN fibers increased with the increasing of coating temperature from 60 to 70 °C. Weight measurements also revealed that the weight of the ZnO coating on fibers decreased with the increase in washing temperature and washing time.  相似文献

Biodegradable polymers, such as poly(lactic acid) (PLA) have attracted a lot of attention in the scientific community recently due to a rapid growth of intensive interest in the global environment for alternatives to petroleum-based polymeric materials. Fatty nitrogen compounds (FNCs), fatty amides (FA), fatty hydroxamic acids (FHA), and carbonyl difatty amides (CDFA), which were synthesized from vegetable oils, were used as one of organic compounds to modify natural clay (sodium montmorillonite). The clay modification was carried out by stirring the clay particles in an aqueous solution of FA, FHA, and CDFA, by which the clay layer thickness increased from 1.23 to 2.61, 2.84 and 3.19 nm, respectively. The modified clay was then used in the preparation of the PLA/epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) blend nanocomposites. They were prepared by incorporating 2% of CDFA-MMT and 3% of both FA-MMT and FHA-MMT. The interaction of the modifier in the clay layer was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). Elemental analysis was used to estimate the presence of FNCs in the clay. The nanocomposites were synthesized by solution casting of the modified clay and a PLA/ESO blend at the weight ratio of 80/20, which has the highest elongation at break. The XRD and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results confirmed the production of nanocomposites. PLA/ESO modified clay nanocomposites show higher thermal stability and significant improvement of mechanical properties in comparison with those of the PLA/ESO blend. The novelty of this study is use of FNCs which reduces the dependence on petroleum-based surfactants.  相似文献

Polysulfonamide (PSA) has been widely used in many fields because of its excellent thermodynamic properties. In this study, PSA fibers were prepared separately via two different spinning ways, including conventional wet spinning and electrospinning. Fluid motion of wet spinning and electrostatic field of electrospinning were modeled using finite element analysis to investigate the spinning process. The properties of fabricated PSA fibers were characterized systematically by scanning electron microscope (SEM), fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravity analysis (TGA) and electronic strength tester. Based on the simulation and theoretical analysis of spinning process, it was found that the extruding force of the wet spinning is larger than that of the electrospinning. The larger extruding force makes the alignment of macromolecules inside fiber relatively uniform, and a higher proportion of crystallization happens. Accordingly, the mechanical properties and thermal stability of PSA fibers could be improved due to a higher proportion of crystallization. The experimental results of mechanical strength and TG test are coincided with the simulation results. PSA fiber prepared by wet spinning has better thermal stability and mechanical properties than that fabricated by electrospinning.  相似文献

The effects of repeated heating and cooling on the properties of pastes prepared from a commercial wheat starch (Triticum aestivum L.) with added monoglycerides were studied using a Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA). The nanostructure of the freeze-dried pastes was determined by X-ray diffraction and small-angle X-ray scattering. Pastes prepared from the wheat starch alone, or from the starch mixed with tripalmitin, which does not form complexes with starch, produced regular viscosity profiles in the RVA when subjected to multiple heat-cool cycles. In comparison, the effects of adding monoglycerides (or monoacylglycerols) depended on the chain length and saturation of the fatty acid of the monoglyceride. Repeated heat-cool cycles in the RVA of the starch with different monoglycerides induced the formation of complexes of varying stability that influenced the viscosity trace of the paste during multiple heating and cooling cycles. Small-angle X-ray scattering in combination with X-ray diffraction proved useful in describing the nanostructural changes in the RVA pastes induced by monoglycerides and temperature cycling. The results indicate that the functional properties of starch pastes may be manipulated through the strategic selection of an added monoglyceride.  相似文献

In order to improve thermal stability of Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) polymer, ABS/natural clinoptilolite (Clino) nanocomposite was produced using solvent/non-solvent method. The influence of natural clinoptilolite nanoparticles on scratch resistance and adherence properties of ABS coating on steel coupons was investigated. In order to study the scratch resistance and adherence properties, thin (20 µm) coatings of ABS and ABS/Clino nanocomposites, were prepared by solution casting method. The formation of ABS/Clino nanocomposite was characterized using FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results showed that there is a strong interaction such as hydrogen bonding between ABS and clinoptilolite nanoparticles. The thermal stability of the nanocomposite was examined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). TGA results showed an increase in the thermal degradation temperature of the nanocomposite. TGA results indicated that the thermal stability of ABS increases by increasing the Clino content of nanocomposite up to 5 % w/w. Scratch resistance and adherence properties of ABS/Clino nanocomposite coatings were also evaluated. Results showed that the scratch resistance and adherence strength of ABS/Clino nanocomposite coatings are higher than that of pure ABS coatings.  相似文献

Most materials used in daily life are polymeric materials based on petrochemistry. The used polymeric materials can cause land pollution and air pollution after landfill or incineration. In contrast, natural fiber reinforced (NFR) composites are more suitable for the environment, however the reliability in terms of the durability and weatherability of NFR composites is still lacking. Thus, NFR composites require the reliability involved with durability and weatherability. In this work, poly(butylene terephthalate-co-glutarate) (PBTG), with a chemical structure similar to biodegradable PBAT, was used as the matrix in the composites, and hemp fibers were used as the reinforcement. Hemp/PBTG composites were fabricated by stacking hemp-fiberwebs and PBTG films with various fiber contents and thermal exposure times. Characteristics of the composites, such as the morphological structure, chemical structure, tensile properties, compressive properties, flexural properties, and impact strength, were analyzed to obtain the effects of fiber volume fraction and thermal exposure. As a result, hemp/PBTG composites were hardened in proportion to fiber volume fractions, and the hardening behavior of the composites increased tensile strength and flexural strength. However, the hardened structure of the composites decreased the impact strength and compressive strength of the composites. On the other hand, the mechanical properties of hemp/PBTG composites with thermal exposure times, were governed significantly by the brittleness behavior of the resin and the increased crystallinity of hemp fibers. Thus, the hemp fibers contributed to the improvements on structural stability, tensile strength and flexural strength of the hemp/PBTG composites, and increased the thermal durability of the composites with various thermal exposures.  相似文献

In this research, halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were incorporated into ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) in order to prepare the nanocomposite fibers by a gel-spun and hot drawing process. The HNTs were treated with oleic acid to improve the dispersion in the UHMWPE fibers. Both the crystallinity tested by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and mechanical properties increased with a low loading of HNTs, and decreased with a high loading. The thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) test showed the thermal stability to improve with the incorporation of HNT. The addition of HNT did not change the crystal type, according to the X-ray diffraction (XRD) study.  相似文献

Electrospun composite fibers of poly-lactic acid (PLA), chitosan (Ch) and paclitaxel (PTX) were fabricated for surface covering of a polymeric prototype PLA stent by means of single nozzle electrospinning approach to prepare a low cytotoxicity drug-eluting stent. Different concentrations of the drug (40 %, 60 %, 80 %, 100 % and 120 %) and chitosan (3 %, 5 %, 7 % and 9 %) were incorporated to reach the optimum composite fibers. The electrospun composite fibers were subjected to detailed analyses including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), tensile test, MTT assay, cell culture and in vitro drug release. Results have confirmed a proper physical encapsulation of PTX in the polymeric matrix in which no chemical bonding was detected between the polymers and the drug. Among the fabricated composite fibers, specimens including 40 % and 60 % drug also exhibited an excellent cytotoxicity and controlled drug release. SEM images have proved the effect of paclitaxel in resisting cell adhesion and propagation on the fibers. Findings from this study suggest a novel polymer/drug coating that could be potentially applicable in surface covering of polymeric stents e.g. PLA stents.  相似文献

Optimization of mechanical properties is required in the applications of tissue-engineered scaffolds. Thermal annealing strategy is proposed to improve the mechanical properties of polyelectrolyte complex nanofiber membranes. The effects of annealing on the structural and mechanical properties of electrospun chitosan-gelatin (CG) nanofiber membranes were investigated using tensile tests, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Tensile test results showed that annealing processing at 90 °C produced 1.3-fold and 1.1-fold increase on Young’s modulus and tensile strength, respectively. By scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation, it was found there was a formation of partial interfiber bonding when annealing temperature was elevated over the glass transition temperature (T g ) of CG nanofibers. FTIR results showed enhanced molecular interactions within fibers, suggesting that annealing treatment promoted the conjunction between chitosan and gelatin. In contrast, no detectable changes in crystallinity for CG nanofiber specimens were exhibited on XRD patterns following annealing treatment. In addition, thermal annealing induced the improvement in thermal stability, aqueous stability and swelling capacity. Therefore, annealing is proved to be an effective strategy for mechanical enhancement of polyelectrolyte complex nanofibrous scaffolds. The enhanced stiffness and strength is mainly attributed to the formation of interfiber bonding and strengthened molecular interactions between chitosan and gelatin.  相似文献

An investigation on the role of cupric (Cu2+) ion incorporation during the thermal stabilization of polyamide 6 fibers was carried out using a combination of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements. Cupric chloride pretreated and thermally stabilized polyamide 6 (PA6) fibers was characterized by a reduction in fiber diameter and linear density values together with color changes from light brown to black with increasing stabilization time. PA6 fibers were properly stabilized after 8 h of stabilization time prior to carbonization. The results obtained from DSC and TGA measurements indicated that there was an improvement in the thermal stability when cupric (Cu2+) ions were incorporated into the polymer structure. TGA thermograms showed the relative improvement in thermal stability as indicated by increasing char yield with progressing time. Char yield reached a maximum value of 33.6 % at 1000 °C for the cupric chloride pretreated PA6 fibers stabilized for 12 h at 180 °C. Experimental results obtained from DSC and X-ray diffraction methods suggested the loss of crystallinity as a result of perturbation of hydrogen bonds with progressing time. The formation of cupric ion-amide coordination bonds improved the thermal stabilization by encouraging the development of ladder-like structures. The investigation resulted in a new method of evaluation of X-ray stabilization index specifically intended for the thermally stabilized PA6 fiber.  相似文献

Twenty first century has witnessed remarkable achievements in green technology in material science through the development of biocomposites. Oil palm fiber (OPF) extracted from the empty fruit bunches is proven as a good raw material for biocomposites. The cellulose content of OPF is in the range of 43%–65% and lignin content is in the range of 13%–25%. A compilation of the morphology, chemical constituents and properties of OPF as reported by various researchers are collected and presented in this paper. The suitability of OPF in various polymeric matrices such as natural rubber, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, phenol formaldehyde, polyurethane, epoxy, polyester, etc. to form biocomposites as reported by various researchers in the recent past is compiled. The properties of these composites viz., physical, mechanical, water sorption, thermal, degradation, electrical properties, etc. are summerised. Oil palm fiber loading in some polymeric matrices improved the strength of the resulting composites whereas less strength was observed in some cases. The composites became more hydrophilic upon addition of OPF. However treatments on fiber surface improved the composite properties. Alkali treatment on OPF is preferred for improving the fiber–matrix adhesion compared to other treatments. The effect of various treatments on the properties of OPF and that of resulting composites reported by various researchers is compiled in this paper. The thermal stability, dielectric constant, electrical conductivity, etc. of the composites improved upon incorporation of OPF. The strength properties reduced upon weathering/degradation. Sisal fiber was reported as a good combination with OPF in hybrid composites.  相似文献

The effects of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) and multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) hybrid nanofillers on the mechanical and thermal properties of reinforced polyethylene terephthalate (PET) have been investigated. The nanocomposites were melt blended using the counter rotating twin screw extruder followed by injection molding. Their morphology, mechanical and thermal properties were characterized. Combination of the two nanofillers in composites formulation supplemented each other which resulted in the overall improvement in adhesion between fillers and matrix. The mechanical properties and thermal stability of the hybrid nanocomposites (PET/GNP1.5/MWCNT1.5) were significantly improved compared to PET/GNP3 and PET/MWCNT3 single filer nanocomposites. However, it was observed that GNP was better in improving the mechanical properties but MWCNT resulted in higher thermal stability of Nanocomposite. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) revealed uniform dispersion of the hybrid fillers in PET/GNP1.5/MWCNT1.5 nanocomposites while agglomeration was observed at higher filler content. The MWCNT prevented the phenomenal stacking of the GNPs by forming a bridge between adjacent GNP planes resulting in higher dispersion of fillers. This complimentary geometrical structure is responsible for the significant improvement in the thermal stability and mechanical properties of the hybrid nanocomposites.  相似文献

Composite fibers made of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and melamine-formaldehyde (MF) resins with different reaction degrees were prepared by wet spinning. The phase structures of MF/PVA spinning dopes and composite fibers were observed by using optical microscope (OM) and scanning electron microscope with energy-dispersive X-ray spetroscopy (SEM-EDS). Crystal structures of composite fibers were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The loss of MF resins in the spinning process was calculated by using Kjeldahl. The mechanical properties, the flame retardant property, the water resistant property, and the thermal stability of composite fibers were also tested. Results show that with an increase in the reaction degree of MF resin, the phase separation degrees of spinning dopes and composite fibers rise up, the size of MF microphase grows larger, and the loss of MF resin diminishes; consequently, the hot water resistance and the flame retardancy of the fiber ameliorate while the tensile strength and the thermal stability perform a tendency of dropping after rising.  相似文献

Enhanced electrical conductivity of cotton fabrics coated with polyaniline (PANI) and PANI/carbon coated Fe (Fe@C) and carbon coated Co (Co@C) metal nanoparticles (NPs) composites were investigated. PANI/metal nanoparticle (NP) composites were fabricated with a surface initialized polymerization method and silanization helped with chemical bonding to cotton. The volume resistivity of the samples and structural characterizations were assessed by relevant methods. The results showed that enhanced electrical conductivity, thermal stability and magnetization were obtained via polymeric nanocomposites (PNC) and all these findings revealed that PANI/metal NP PNC coated cotton fabrics would exhibit good level electromagnetic shielding performance as a function of combined electrical conductivity and magnetization which is the objective of our future studies.  相似文献

A micro Z-arm mixer and a 2g-Mixograph were used to compare the effect of pin and Z-arm-type mixing actions on mixing properties of wheat flour dough. Although the two mixing curves obtained with pin- and Z-arm-type mixing action showed a very similar mixing trace, no significant correlation was found between the two mixers other than the number of revolutions required for optimal dough consistency (peak resistance). Mixing requirement was described by a rate-independent parameter, the number of revolutions to peak dough development and was found to be greater in a Z-arm mixer than in a pin mixer. Mixing requirement showed significant correlation with stability, which is therefore a dough strength parameter. The change in the polymeric structure of gluten proteins of dough as indicated by %UPP (unextractable polymeric protein percentage) was monitored and showed a smaller decrease with Z-arm mixing than with pin mixing. Therefore, pin-mixing action is more energetic than Z-arm mixing. At peak resistance, Z-arm mixing gives a larger quantity of polymeric protein content in the dough relative to pin mixing. The degree of dough development at maximum resistance in the different mixers was shown to be different. A new parameter, delta-UPPMZUPPMZ (the difference between %UPP of dough obtained with pin vs Z-arm mixing actions) was identified and proposed to have some relationship to the stability of the polymeric proteins in the dough.  相似文献

Sugarcane bagasse (SB) was subjected to mechanical and chemical treatments in order to investigate the influence of both treatments on the morphology of cellulose extracted from SB. Samples treated with supermasscolloider (SMC) showed a slight increase in the cellulose content and a highest content after chemical treatment. Furthermore, SEM and XRD results revealed a decline in the fibre average diameter (10-2 μm) and sheet-like fibrils from mechanically treated samples, while the crystallinity index values increased for both mechanical and chemical treatment. FTIR and chemical composition analysis confirmed a partial removal of hemicellulose and lignin by supermasscolloider, whereas the chemical treatments removed a significant amount and this was effectively reflected on the improved thermal stability of cellulose mechanically and chemically treated respectively.  相似文献

Graphene nanoplatelet (GnP) was chemically functionalized by amine groups for improvement of compatibility in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) blend. PMMA/PEO (90/10) nanocomposites with non-functionalized GnP and functionalized GnP (FGnP) were prepared by solution casting method. Successful grafting of amine groups on the GnP surface was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images showed that the dispersion state of FGnP was better than that of GnP in PMMA/PEO nanocomposites. The effects of FGnP and GnP on rheological, thermal and electrical properties of PMMA/PEO nanocomposites were investigated by various methods. The results indicated that the FGnP-based nanocomposites had higher storage modulus, glass transition temperature and thermal stability as compared to the GnP-based nanocomposites. The electrical conductivity of the nanocomposites with FGnP was better than that of GnP-based nanocomposites. The higher conductivity was attributed to homogeneous and well dispersion state of FGnP in PMMA/PEO nanocomposites.  相似文献
