In the current study, inorganic fullerene (IF)-like tungsten disulphide (WS) nanoparticles from layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) were introduced into a poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) polymer matrix to generate novel bionanocomposite materials through an advantageous melt-processing route. The effectiveness of employing IF-WS on the morphology and property enhancement of the resulting hybrid nanocomposites was evaluated. The non-isothermal melt-crystallization and melting measurements revealed that the crystallization and melting temperature as well as the crystallinity of PLLA were controlled by the cooling rate and composition. The crystallization behaviour and kinetics were examined by using the Lui model. Moreover, the nucleating effect of IF-WS was investigated in terms of Gutzow and Dobreva approaches. It was discovered that the incorporation of increasing IF-WS contents led to a progressive acceleration of the crystallization rate of PLLA. The morphology and kinetic data demonstrate the high performance of these novel nanocomposites for industrial applications.
在当前研究中,通过一种有利的熔融加工路线,将来自层状过渡金属二硫属化物(TMDCs)的类无机富勒烯(IF)硫化钨(WS)纳米颗粒引入聚(L-乳酸)(PLLA)聚合物基体中,以制备新型生物纳米复合材料。评估了使用IF-WS对所得杂化纳米复合材料的形态和性能增强的有效性。非等温熔融结晶和熔融测量表明,PLLA的结晶温度、熔融温度以及结晶度受冷却速率和组成的控制。采用Lui模型研究了结晶行为和动力学。此外,根据Gutzow和Dobreva方法研究了IF-WS的成核作用。发现随着IF-WS含量的增加,PLLA的结晶速率逐渐加快。形态和动力学数据证明了这些新型纳米复合材料在工业应用中的高性能。
