Production and characterization of PBAT reinforced with clay and graphene oxide nanosheets

The poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT), a biodegradable polymer, is among the most promising materials to be considered as environmentally friendly high performance biodegradable plastics. However, the mechanical properties of PBAT are not the best for several applications. According to the literature, the properties of the biodegradable polymer can be improved by addition of a small amount of nanofillers, such as clay, silica, and graphene. The objective of this study is to compare the effect of the addition of Cloisite clay and graphene oxide (GO) on the properties of flexible films based on PBAT matrix. The composite films based on PBAT with addition of Cloisite (2.0 wt%) and PBAT composite films with addition of Cloisite and GO (0.1–0.2 wt%) were prepared by extrusion, using a twin-screw extruder and a flat die single extruder. The effects of the addition of Cloisite clay and graphene oxide on mechanical and thermal properties of films were evaluated by mechanical and water absorption tests, FE-SEM, XRD, and Raman analysis.
Study of flexible films prepared from PLA/PBAT blend and PLA E-beam irradiated as compatibilizing agent

Plastics global annual production exceeds 250 million tons and more than 40% of the total plastic production is used as packaging materials. In recent years polymeric materials derived from biomass have received great attention due to scarce petroleum resources and environmental concerns. PLA is one of the most extensively studied bio-based and bio-compostable aliphatic polyesters; nevertheless, high brittleness and low toughness limits its application. Blending PLA with PBAT (Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)), an aliphatic-aromatic copolyester, was the solution found due to its high toughness and biodegradability. Differences between PLA and PBAT solubility parameter values lead to the formation of immiscible blends as well as reduction in their mechanical performance besides a poor morphology; so, 5% of pre-irradiated PLA and a previous compatibilized PLA/PBAT (EcovioTM) were added to PLA/PBAT blends in order to improve miscibility phases. Investigations were accomplished on phase morphology (SEM), mechanical properties, thermal behavior and X-ray diffractions (XRD).
Evaluation of the Poly (Lactic Acid) and calcium carbonate effects on the mechanical and morphological properties in PBAT blends and composites
2017 - NUNES, EDILENE de C.D.; SOUZA, ALANA G. de; COIADO, RENATA D.S.; MOURA, ESPERIDIANA A.B.; ROSA, DERVAL dos S.
In this study, the effect of the organic (poly(lactic acid)) and the inorganic (calcium carbonate (CaCOR3R)) fillers were evaluated in mechanical, thermal, morphological and surface properties of the poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) matrix. Mechanical results showed that the fillers has an influence on the PBAT matrix. The use of CaCOR3R showed higher elongation at break than PLA. However, the blends showed higher elastic modulus, resulting in greater stiffness to the PBAT matrix. Both fillers thermally destabilized the matrix. The morphological properties showed a uniform dispersion of the fillers in the composites and blends, however it is weaker with PLA. Because the PBAT matrix surface is, intrinsically, hydrophobic, the composites presented a smaller degree of hydrophobicity, while the PLA makes the blends hydrophilic.
Preparation and characterization of PBT/clay nanocomposite

This work presents the preparation and characterization of a nanocomposite based on Poly(butylene terephthalate) PBT and Brazilian smectitic clay (bentonite chocolate clay). Before being incorporated as clay nanoparticles in PBT resin, the clay was organically modified by the addition of a quaternary salt and sodium carbonate. PBT/Clay nanocomposite (96.3:3.70 wt %) was obtained by using a twin-screw extruder machine. After extrusion process, the nanocomposite was characterized by tensile, flexural and impact tests, SEM, Vicat, HDT, DSC, TGA and XRD tests. The results showed that the properties of the nanocomposite obtained were superior to those of neat PBT. Concerning the temperature of thermal distortion (HDT) an expressive gain of around 45 % was presented to PBT/Clay nanocomposite compared to PBT evidencing the interaction of nanofiller with the polymeric matrix.
