Double Hydroxides

The high capacity of calcinated layered double hydroxides (LDH) to immobilize various active molecules together with their inherent gas/vapor impermeability make these nanoparticles highly promising to be applied as nanofillers for biodegradable polyester packaging. Herein, trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium decanoate ionic liquid (IL) was immobilized on the surface of calcinated LDH. Thus, the synthesized nanoparticles were used for the preparation of polycaprolactone (PCL)/LDH nanocomposites. Two different methods of nanocomposite preparation were used and compared: microwave-assisted in situ ring opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone (εCL) and melt-blending. The in situ ROP of εCL in the presence of LDH nanoparticles with the immobilized IL led to homogenous nanofiller dispersion in the PCL matrix promoting formation of large PCL crystallites, which resulted in the improved mechanical, thermal and gas/water vapor barrier properties of the final nanocomposite. The surface-bonded IL thus acted as nanofiller surfactant, compatibilizer, as well as thermal stabilizer of the PCL/LDH nanocomposites. Contrary to that, the melt-blending caused a partial degradation of the immobilized IL and led to the production of PCL nanocomposites with a heterogenous nanofiller dispersion having inferior mechanical and gas/water vapor barrier properties.

Pet Fibers

The approach of in situ polymerization modification has proven to be an effective route for introducing functions for polyester materials. In this work, Cu2O@ZrP nanosheets with excellent dispersity and high antibacterial activity were integrated into in situ polymerized polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers, revealing an enhanced mechanical performance in comparison with the PET fibers fabricated directly via a traditional melt blending method. Additionally, such an in situ polymerized PET/Cu2O@ZrP fibers displayed highly enhanced mechanical properties; and great antibacterial activities against multi-types of bacterium, including S. aureus, E. coli and C. albicans. For the as-obtained two types of PET/Cu2O@ZrP fibers, we have detailed their molecular weight (detailed molecular weight) and dispersibility of nano-Cu2O@ZrP and fibers crystallinity was investigated by Gel chromatography (GPC), Scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-ray diffractometer (XRD), respectively. The results showed that the aggregation of the nano-Cu2O@ZrP in the resultant PET matrix could be effectively prevented during its in situ polymerization process, hence we attribute its highly enhanced mechanical properties to its superior dispersion of nano-Cu2O@ZrP.
