In this paper, the lamellar structural evolution and microvoids variations of β-iPP during the processing of two different stretching methods, sequential biaxial stretching and simultaneous biaxial stretching, were investigated in detail. It was found that different stretching methods led to significantly different lamellae deformation modes, and the microporous membranes obtained from the simultaneous biaxial stretching exhibited better mechanical properties. For the sequential biaxial stretching, abundant coarse fibers originated from the tight accumulation of the lamellae parallel to the longitudinal stretching direction, whereas the lamellae perpendicular to the stretching direction were easily deformed and separated. Those coarse fibers were difficult to be separated to form micropores during the subsequent transverse stretching process, resulting in a poor micropores distribution. However, for the simultaneous biaxial stretching, the β crystal had the same deformation mode, that is, the lamellae distributed in different directions were all destroyed, forming abundant microvoids and little coarse fibers formation.

The Impact

This work explores a novel blend of recycled polyethylene terephthalate/polyamide 11 (rPET/PA11). The blend of rPET/PA11 was introduced to enhance the mechanical properties of rPET at various ratios. The work’s main advantage was to utilize rPET in thermoplastic form for various applications. Three different ratios, i.e. 10, 20 and 30 wt.% of PA11 blend samples, were prepared using a twin-screw extruder and injection moulding machine. The mechanical properties were examined in terms of tensile, flexural and impact strength. The tensile strength of rPET was improved more than 50%, while the increase in tensile strain was observed 42.5% with the addition of 20 wt.% of PA11. The improved properties of the blend were also confirmed by the flexural strength of the blends. The flexural strength was increased from 27.9 MPa to 48 MPa with the addition of 30 wt.% PA11. The flexural strain of rPET was found to be 1.1%. However, with the addition of 10, 20 and 30 wt.% of PA11, the flexural strain was noticed as 1.7, 2.1, and 3.9% respectively. The impact strength of rPET/PA11 at 20 wt.% PA11 was upsurged from 110.53 to 147.12 J/m. Scanning electron microscopy analysis revealed a dispersed PA11 domain in a continuous rPET matrix morphology of the blends. This work practical implication would lead to utilization of rPET in automobile, packaging, and various industries.

Abstract There are two different stretching processes that produce the biaxially oriented film, namely the tenter process and double bubble tubular film process. Furthermore, there are two tenter processes, i.e., the sequential biaxial stretching process and simultaneous biaxial stretching process. There is no report describing the difference among film physical properties of the three different processes. The biaxially oriented polyamide film using the double bubble tubular process has good balanced physical property and high impact strength, thus it is used for proper applications utilizing their advantage properties. In this report, the influence of each biaxial stretching process on film physical properties of polyamide, which has hydrogen bond, was studied in detail. As a result, the tentering process film has anisotropic tensile properties between machine direction (MD) and transverse direction (TD). This result was influenced by a later stretching process, namely TD stretching. On the contrary, the double bubble tubular film has good balanced properties, especially thermal shrinkage and impact strength. Tentering simultaneous stretching film has much larger shrinkage in MD than in TD. The sequential stretching film has larger shrinkage in TD than in MD. The double bubble tubular film has high impact strength, because it corresponds to the balanced molecular orientation.

Stretching Process

The deformation behavior of Polypropylene (PP) film during successive biaxial stretching process which consists of machine direction (MD) stretching process with a roll drawing and transverse direction (TD) stretching with a tentering was analyzed sequentially by using a finite element method (FEM). In order to analyze it, stress-strain curves of casted PP film and uni-axially oriented PP film in MD were measured and fitted into the constitutive equation that the authors developed previously, respectively, and then, material constants for both films were obtained. Deformation behavior during successive biaxial stretching were calculated by applying the constitutive equation with the material constants of casted PP film for MD stretching and uni-axially oriented PP film in MD for TD stretching, respectively. Analytical conditions were the draw ratio of 5 for MD analysis and the stretching ratio of 9.5 for TD analysis. The authors also experimentally measured the thickness of film during and after MD and TD stretching using a pilot plant under the same conditions as analytical condition. Calculated results were able to express qualitatively the experimental deformation behavior of PP film such as the neck-in phenomena during MD stretching and the change of film thickness during MD and TD stretching.
