Improving the physical properties of biobased polymers using bionanofillers is essential to preserve its biodegradability. This work presents a dopamine-induced functionalization of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) with polyethylene glycol (PEG), to enhance the crystallization, mechanical and barrier properties of poly( L -lactic acid) (PLLA) bionanocomposites. The effect of molecular weight of grafted PEG on the properties of PLLA is also studied. PEGylation of CNCs significantly enhance the crystallization of PLLA, especially for CNCs functionalized with PEG of lower molecular weight, which lead to balanced strength and ductility, and 66.4% reduction in the oxygen permeability coefficient at a low content of 0.5 wt %. Moreover, 168% improvement of ductility for PLLA can be obtained by CNCs functionalized with longer PEG chains. The surface functionalization of CNCs proposed here opens up a green avenue towards designing and fabricating fully bio-based, high-barrier and low-cost polymer nanocomposites for packaging applications.

In this article, semi-interpenetrating polymer network (Semi-IPNs) based on nitrile rubber (NBR) and poly(methyl methacrylate- co -butyl acrylate) (P(MMA-BA)) were synthesized. The structure and damping properties of the prepared Semi-IPNs blends were characterized and by fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DTG), and tensile mechanical properties. The results showed that interpenetrating network based on P(MMA-BA) and NBR was successfully obtained, which showed the improved thermal stability compared to NBR/P(MMA-BA)-based two-roll mill blends. Furthermore, Semi-IPNs showed significantly better the dynamic mechanical properties than that of the two-roll mill system. With the increasing feed ratio of BA and MMA during the preparation of Semi-IPNs, the loss peak position for P(MMA-BA) in NBR/PMMA IPNs shifted to a lower temperature from 20°C to −17°C, and when NBR in Semi-IPNs was accounted for 40 wt %, the dynamic mechanical thermal analysis showed that much more advanced damping material with wider temperature range (−30°C < T < 80°C) as tan δ > 0.45 can be achieved. Therefore, it was expected as a promising way to obtain the excellent damping materials with good oil-resisted properties according the Semi-IPNs system. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Families of bio-based hyperbranched epoxy (HBPEEs) were successfully prepared using renewable xylitol, bisphenol A and epichlorohydrin as feedstocks. The structure and physical performances of HBPEEs were characterized by FTIR, NMR, GPC and viscosity evaluation. Then, they were used as high efficient tougheners for diglycidyl of bisphenol A/diethylenetriamine (DGEBA/DETA) networks. The results indicated that the incorporation of HBPEEs into the DGEBA system can significantly enhance the mechanical properties and solvent resistance properties of the hybrid (HBPEEs/DGEBA). In particular, toughened hybrids with 15 wt% HBPEE-2 exhibited the outstanding impact strength than that of neat DGEBA (37.4 kJ/m 2 vs. 11.8 kJ/m 2 ) due to its excellent compatibility of with DGEBA. Simultaneously, the ductile fracture morphology of the modified hybrids was also confirmed by SEM. In addition, the activation energies of HBPEE-2/DGEBA hybrids calculated from the non-isothermal curing kinetics were lower than that of neat DGEBA. All of the results suggested that the bio-based HBPEEs could be used as efficient tougheners applied in epoxy resins industry.

To enhance the ultraviolet resistance of ZnO based polymer materials, ZnO-supported mesoporous zeolite (M-ZnO) was prepared and characterized by atomic absorption spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The ultraviolet resistance, crystallization behavior and melting characteristics of ZnO and M-ZnO filled PPR composites were compared by FTIR spectra and differential scanning calorimetry. The ultraviolet resistance of M-ZnO filled PPR composites is higher than that of ZnO filled PPR composites, indicating higher ultraviolet resistance of M-ZnO than that of ZnO. The crystallization temperatures of mesoporous zeolite filled PPR were higher than those of M-ZnO and decreased with increasing UV-irradiation time. But the crystallization temperatures of M-ZnO filled PPR composites were not influenced by UV-irradiation time. The ZnO supported on the surface of zeolite is effective in enhancing the ultraviolet resistance of ZnO based polymer materials.

Maleated glycidyl 3-pentadecenyl phenyl ether with styrene (MGS) was synthesized from glycidyl 3-pentadecenyl phenyl ether (GPPE), maleic anhydride (MAH) and styrene (St) in the presence of AIBN initiator at 80°C, and then the resultant MGS was applied as a compatibilizer to prepare SBR/silica composites. Meanwhile, the commercial compatibilizer bis-(triethoxysilylpropyl) tetrasulfide (named Si69) added into composite was also prepared for comparison purpose. The synthetic MGS structure was characterized by GPC and FTIR, and SBR/silica compounds with different compatibilizer were analyzed using RPA, DMA and so on. The results showed that M̄n and M̄w of MGS were 19,538 g/mol and 23,790 g/mol, respectively. The curing time of compounds with MGS increased, whereas the maximum and minimum torques decreased. The addition of MGS decreased Payne effect of SBR/silica compounds, which implied an improvement of silica dispersion in the compounds. Bound rubber content of compound with MGS was about 1.7 times higher than the absence and 1.5 times higher than that with Si69. The tensile strength of the composites was improved by increasing compatibilizer loading, and the optimum value was observed at 6 phr of MGS. Meanwhile the use of MGS can improve the anti-aging property of composite. According to DMA, the tanδ value at 0°C of composite with MGS was higher than composite without compatibilizer suggesting that MGS can improve the wet skid resistance of composite. The SEM analysis revealed that introduction of MGS enhanced the compatibility between SBR and silica. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
