摘要: 为了研究水滑石复合材料的力学性能、热稳定性、动态热机械性能、结晶行为和界面相容性等,通过共沉淀法制备镁铝水滑石,再将水滑石进行焙烧,得到焙烧镁铝水滑石,以控制变量法考察温度和时间对水滑石层间结构的影响,利用TG、SEM、XRD分别表征测试了300℃下焙烧后的水滑石(LDHs(300))的形貌和热稳定性,证实其层间水已经大部分除去,且保持层状结构而不损害其原有的性能。利用FTIR、XRD表征测试了十二烷基苯磺酸钠(SDBS)能成功插层改性焙烧后的水滑石。再采用熔融共混法,将不同表面改性的水滑石颗粒添加到聚乳酸-马来酸酐接枝聚丙烯(PLA-PP-g-MAH)得到不同的复合材料。结果表明,焙烧改性后的水滑石复合材料的性能最优。通过SEM进行的形态分析表明,随着水滑石添加到PLA-PP-g-MAH中,PP-g-MAH颗粒相畴尺寸显著减小,PP-g-MAH相具有更好的润湿性,从而产生更高的冲击强度,冲击性能与纯PLA相比提高了37.72%。从流变行为发现,焙烧改性后的水滑石复合材料的流变性能比PLA显著增加。DMA表明,在PLA-PP-g-MAH共混物中添加焙烧改性后的水滑石,PLA的玻璃化转变温度
$ \left({T}_{\mathrm{g}}\right) $ 升高和冷结晶温度$ {(T}_{\mathrm{c}\mathrm{c}}) $ 降低。从DSC和POM表明,焙烧改性后的水滑石复合材料提高了结晶速率,结晶度比PLA提高了62.8%。Abstract: In order to study the mechanical properties, thermal stability, dynamic thermomechanical properties, crystallization behavior and interfacial compatibility of hydrotalcite composites, Mg-Al hydrotalcite was prepared by coprecipitation method, and then calcined to obtain calcined Mg-Al hydrotalcite. The effects of temperature and time on the interlayer structure of hydrotalcite were investigated by variable control method. The hydrotalcite calcined at 300℃ (LDHs(300)) was characterized and tested by TG, SEM and XRD. The morphology and thermal stability confirmed that most of the interlayer water had been removed, and the layered structure was maintained without damaging its original properties. The calcined hydrotalcite was successfully intercalated with sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) by FTIR and XRD. Then different surface modified hydrotalcite particles were added to polylactic acid/maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PLA-PP-g-MAH) by melt blending to obtain different composites. The results show that the properties of hydrotalcite composites modified by calcination are the best. The morphological analysis by SEM shows that with the addition of hydrotalcite to PLA-PP-g-MAH, the domain size of PP-g-MAH particles decreases significantly, and the PP-g-MAH phase has better wettability, resulting in higher impact strength, compared with pure PLA, it increased by 37.72%. From the rheological behavior, it is found that the rheological properties of calcined hydrotalcite composites are significantly higher than those of PLA. DMA shows that when calcined hydrotalcite is added to PLA-PP-g-MAH blend, the glass transition temperature (Tg) of PLA increased and the cold crystallization temperature (Tcc) decreased. DSC and POM show that the crystallization rate and crystallinity of calcined hydrotalcite composites are higher than those of PLA by 62.8%. -
