Determination of Morphology and Mechanical Properties of Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsequioxane (POSS) Based on Poly(vinylidene fluoride) Matrix

Abstract:

In this paper, different amounts of fluoropropyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (FP-POSS) were incorporated into the poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) matrix by the solvent evaporation method. Influence of FP-POSS on morphology and mechanical properties of PVDF matrix was investigated. Good dispersion between FP-POSS and PVDF was achieved up to 8 wt% of nanofiller. The mechanical testing and dynamic mechanical analysis showed that low FP-POSS content induced a positive reinforcement effect on mechanical property in the formed composites. The results also indicated the existence of the optimal formula for producing POSS polymer composites, and POSS owning to its unique organic-inorganic structure can act as a plasticizer or as a reinforcing agent on the basis of interactions between filler and polymer.
