A facile "one-pot" synthetic route to modify SiO nanoparticles with long-chain polymer was developed. The structure and morphology of SiO grafted with poly(l-lactide) (SiO--PLA) were characterized by FTIR, TGA, GPC, and TEM. Furthermore, a series of PLA/SiO--PLA nanocomposites were prepared with different nanofiller loadings, and their related performances were investigated. As an effective nucleating agent, the SiO--PLA had a positive effect to improve the crystallization rate and increase the crystallinity. Meanwhile, the PLA nanocomposites presented outstanding mechanical properties including excellent toughness and high stiffness. In addition, the PLA materials kept good transparency with less than 3 wt% nanofillers. Overall, this work provides a useful method for preparing high-performance polymer nanocomposites.
开发了一种简便的“一锅法”合成路线,用于用长链聚合物修饰SiO纳米颗粒。通过傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)、热重分析(TGA)、凝胶渗透色谱(GPC)和透射电子显微镜(TEM)对接枝聚(L-丙交酯)的SiO(SiO-PLA)的结构和形态进行了表征。此外,制备了一系列具有不同纳米填料负载量的聚乳酸/接枝聚乳酸的SiO纳米复合材料,并对其相关性能进行了研究。作为一种有效的成核剂,接枝聚乳酸的SiO对提高结晶速率和增加结晶度具有积极作用。同时,聚乳酸纳米复合材料表现出优异的力学性能,包括出色的韧性和高刚度。此外,当纳米填料含量低于3 wt%时,聚乳酸材料保持良好的透明度。总体而言,这项工作为制备高性能聚合物纳米复合材料提供了一种有用的方法。
