In this paper, we report the preparation of polyethylene composites with organically modified montmorillonite. Three different Na+-montmorillonites were modified in order to obtain organoclays and two grades of high-density polyethylene were used as composite matrices. All composites were prepared by melt blending, and their physical and mechanical properties were thoroughly characterized. The extent of clay platelet exfoliation in the composites was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Mechanical properties under static and impact conditions were evaluated to assess the influence of the reinforcement on the properties of polyethylene.

New Material

The viability of metallocene linear low density polyethylene (mLLDPE) nanocomposites is being investigated as a new material for biomedical application. The effect of filler loadings on the ambient andin vitro(after being exposed in oxidizing condition, 37°C) mechanical properties was studied. We observed that, the mLLDPE nanocomposites have higher mechanical property values as compared to the neat mLLDPE. Furthermore, these properties were less affected by thein vitroconditions. The best ambient andin vitromechanical properties were achived when 3wt% of organically modified MMT (organo-MMT) was added into the mLLDPE. It was postulated that the presence of MMT layered structure introduced a more tortous path for the diffusing of oxidant molecules, thereby decreasing their permeability towards mLLDPE molecular chains. The smaller amount of oxidants entering the molecular chains resulted in greater retention of mechanical properties when testedin vitro. This preliminary biostability studies show promising properties of the mLLDPE nanocomposite which possess the potential to be further developed for biomedical devices.

ABSTRACTNanocomposites of α-hydroxy polyester, polylactide (PLA) and β-hydroxy polyester, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) with layered silicates have been successfully prepared by melt extrusion of PLA and PHB with organically modified montmorillonite (MMT) and fluoromica. The mechanical properties of the nanocomposites are improved compared to the neat polymers. Storage modulus increase up to 40% compared with the pure polymers by adding only 2–3 wt% nanoclay. Biodegradation can be controlled by the choice of the nanoclay used.

The aim of this research was to probe the potential application of nano-titanium dioxide (TiO2)/basic magnesium hypochlorite (BMH)-containing linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) composite film in grape fresh-keeping. Mechanical properties, transparency, barrier performance and antibacterial activity of the nano-composite membrane were measured, and results showed that the antibacterial zone diameter of TiO2/BMH on pathogen-Aspergillus niger was 31.4 mm, with mixing ratio of BMH/TiO2 to 2:1. It was clearly shown that the synthesized nano-composite films decreased mechanical properties and transparency of the membrane, and also had a significant impact on sensory score, mass loss rate, decay rate, ascorbic acid (Vc) content and titratable acid content compared with LLDPE films. Moreover, the results revealed that the LLDPE antibacterial film can be effectively used for storing grapes, preserving the flavor of grapes and had an obviously effect in prolonging grapes’ shelf life.
