A montmorillonite@chitosan-poly (ethylene oxide) nanofibrous membrane (MMT@CPF) enhancing poly (vinyl alcohol-co-ethylene) (EVOH-MMT@CPF) composite film was developed by using a space-filling embedding method. The structure of EVOH-MMT@CPF was characterized, and the thermal stability, mechanical and barrier properties of the films were investigated. The CPF was fabricated via electrospinning technique and the self-assembly of MMT nano-platelets on CPF was achieved by the driving of electrostatic interactions between MMT nano-platelet and CPF. The experimental results indicated that the well-kept MMT@CPF after embedding in the EVOH matrix significantly improved the thermal stability and mechanical properties of the film, and also endowed the film with outstanding oxygen barrier (0.2×10cmcmcmsPa) and good moisture barrier (4.6×10gmmsatm under a relative humidity of 90%) by prolonging the tortuous paths for molecule penetration. The composite film may have a great potential application in food packaging.
采用空间填充嵌入法制备了蒙脱土@壳聚糖-聚氧化乙烯(MMT@CPF)纳米纤维膜增强聚乙烯醇-共-乙烯醇(EVOH-MMT@CPF)复合膜。对 EVOH-MMT@CPF 的结构进行了表征,并研究了薄膜的热稳定性、力学性能和阻隔性能。CPF 通过静电纺丝技术制备,MMT 纳米片在 CPF 上的自组装是通过 MMT 纳米片和 CPF 之间的静电相互作用驱动的。实验结果表明,在 EVOH 基体中嵌入保持良好的 MMT@CPF 显著提高了薄膜的热稳定性和力学性能,并通过延长分子渗透的曲折路径赋予薄膜优异的氧气阻隔性(0.2×10cmcmcmsPa)和良好的水分阻隔性(4.6×10gmmsatm,相对湿度为 90%)。该复合膜在食品包装方面可能具有很大的应用潜力。
