Structural and Thermomechanical Evaluation of Bionanocomposites Obtained from Biodegradable Polymers with a Organoclay

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study bionanocomposites were prepared from biodegradable polymer matrices such as poly (lactic acid) (PLA) and PBAT/PLA blend commercially known as Ecovio®, with abundant smectite clays in Paraíba and modified (OMMT) with Praepagen quaternary ammonium salt. Systems with PLA and with the blends of PBAT/PLA were prepared with addition of bentonite clay at a concentration of 3wt.%. in a twin screw corrotational extruder. The systems containing PLA/OMMT and blend of PBAT/PLA/OMMT were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT). From the diffractograms of bionanocomposites PLA/OMMT and PBAT/PLA/ OMMT it was observed a probably microcomposite structure. It was also observed that the HDT of PBA/PLA/OMMT and the blend of PBAT/PLA bionanocomposites was lower in relation to pure PLA and its PLA/OMMT bionanocomposite.
