In this study, biodegradable nanocomposite film composed of pullulan - whey protein isolate (WPI) - montmorillonite (MMT) were developed and characterized as a function of incorporating various amounts of MMT nanoparticles (0, 1, 3 and 5 % wt). Results showed that the water-vapor permeability, moisture content, moisture absorption and water solubility decreased when the nano-MMT content was increased. Tensile strength improved and elongation at break simultaneously decreased with increasing MMT content. The glass transition temperature (Tg(and melting-point temperature (Tm) increased with increasing nano-MMT content. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed uniform distribution of MMT into the polymer matrix. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) showed enhancement of films' roughness with increasing MMT content.
在本研究中,开发了由普鲁兰多糖-乳清分离蛋白(WPI)-蒙脱石(MMT)组成的可生物降解纳米复合薄膜,并根据掺入不同量的MMT纳米颗粒(0、1、3和5 wt%)对其进行了表征。结果表明,随着纳米MMT含量的增加,水蒸气透过率、水分含量、吸湿率和水溶性均降低。随着MMT含量的增加,拉伸强度提高,断裂伸长率同时降低。玻璃化转变温度(Tg)和熔点温度(Tm)随纳米MMT含量的增加而升高。扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和X射线衍射(XRD)分析表明MMT在聚合物基体中分布均匀。原子力显微镜(AFM)显示,随着MMT含量的增加,薄膜的粗糙度增加。
