Abstract. The effect of uniaxial stretching of different stretching ratio at 80 °C, 90°C, 100°C, 110 °C and 120°C on the crystallization behavior of polylactic acid (PLA) film was investigated by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD) and polarizing microscope (POM). The results showed that the crystallinity of PLA film was improved via uniaxial tensile orientation and increased with increasing stretch ratio, and the crystallinity of PLA film reached the maximum under the conditions of 90°C and stretching ratio 300%. Stretched PLA films show α crystal form. The spherulites deform to ellipsoids after stretching.

The heat-resistant agent N-(4-carboxyphenyl) maleimide–alt–styrene (PCS) was used to modify polylactic acid (PLA) in order to improve the thermostability of PLA. The heat deflection temperature (HDT), thermodegradation, crystallization behavior and thermomechanical property were analyzed. The HDT of PLA added with PCS increased by about 10°C, and after heat treatment, the improvement of HDT was more significant. The thermal degradation behavior of PLA before and after modification hardly changed. The crystallinity ( Xc), crystallization rate ( 1/t1/2) and crystallization temperature ( Tc) of the composite material were significantly improved, but the crystalline structure did not change. The crystallinity of the composite material was twice that of pure PLA, the crystallization rate increased by about 30% and the crystallization temperature went up more than 10°C. The storage modulus ( E’) of PLA was improved by PCS due to enhancing its crystallinity. The thermostability of PLA was significant improved after PCS is added.

In the present work, the effect of plasma treated ZnO nanoparticle on crystallization behavior and properties of polypropylene(PP)/ polylactic acid (PLA)composites filaments has been intensively researched. Our results show that, although the interfacial interaction between PP/PLA and nano ZnO is very weak, addition of nano ZnO and the proportional relations of PP/PLA in composites induced the increase of percent crystallinity. Tensile results showed that nano ZnO /PP/PLA nanocomposites filaments were strain rate sensitive materials and the activation volumes of the nano ZnO /PP/PLA nanocomposite filaments by following Eyring’s equation could be evaluated.

Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the rheological property and crystallization behavior of polylactic acid (PLA) with improved heat resistance (Ingeo™ Biopolymer 4032D) through investigation of the melt viscosity and crystallization kinetics of PLA at different process temperatures. The viscosity was measured using a rotational rheometer under conditions of shear rates of 0.01, 0.1, and 1/s. The obtained rheological data show that the viscosity tended to decrease slightly as the shear rate increases and decrease sharply as the temperature increases from 180°C to 210°C. To investigate the effect of the process temperature on the crystallization kinetics and final crystallinity of PLA, thermal analysis using isothermal differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were also performed. The Avrami equation was successfully applied for the isothermal crystallization kinetics model. From crystallization temperature of 85°C to 120°C, we found that the Ingeo™ Biopolymer 4032D PLA had the fastest crystallization rate (t 1/2: 26.0 min) and the largest crystallinity (47.4%) at 100°C.
