Effects of Silica Nanoparticle Addition on Dynamic Properties of Poly(lactic acid)

Abstract:

Bioplastics are plastics derived from renewable sources such as corn starch or microbe and biodegradable plastics are plastics that are capable of being decomposed by bacteria or other living organisms. Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) is a typical and biodegradable bioplastic. It has been recognized as a promising alternative material for petroleum-based polymers. In order to increase Young’s modulus, in the present study, silica nanoparticles were added to PLA. The effects of the addition of silica nanoparticles and the surface treatment of nanosilica particles on dynamic properties of nanoparticle added PLA were examined using tensile split Hopkinson pressure bar method and the Izod impact strength tests.
