摘要
采用熔融共混法制备聚乳酸/热塑性聚醚酯弹性体(PLA/TPEE)共混物,探究共混物配比、急冷和等温热处理温度对材料冲击性能及耐热性能的影响。差示扫描量热法测试结果表明,急冷定型所得样品的结晶度小于7%,接近非晶态。而等温热处理所得样品的结晶度均达到30%以上。相对于急冷样品,90℃等温热处理20min所得样品的冲击性能和耐热性能均得到增强。当TPEE含量为20%时,90℃等温结晶处理20min所得样品的无缺口冲击强度和维卡软化点温度分别由急冷样条的50.89kJ/m~2和66.2℃提升至53.47kJ/m~2和160.8℃,达到无缺口冲击强度和耐热性能最佳平衡点。90℃热处理20min时,PLA基体生成大量细小晶体,一方面大大提升材料的耐热性能;另一方面,能够有效分散应力,并与TPEE分散相一起诱导材料屈服,从而提升冲击韧性。
Polylactide/thermoplastic poly(ether-ester) elastomer(PLA/TPEE) blends were prepared by melt blending method. Influences of mass ratio,quenching and isothermal heat treatment temperature on impact toughness and heat resistance of the PLA/TPEE blends were researched. According to DSC results,it is confirmed that the quenched specimens show low crystallinites(less than 7%),roughly being amorphous. In contrast,the crystallinities of crystallized specimens through isothermal heat treatment increase up to more than 30%. Moreover,compared with the quenched specimens with poor heat resistance,the crystallized specimens through isothermal heat treatment at 90℃ for 20 min present significantly enhanced heat resistance and improved impact toughness. The PLA/TPEE blend containing 20% TPEE isothermally heat treated at 90℃ for 20 min shows the optimum comprehensive performance,which unnotched impact strength and vicat softening temperature increase from 50.89 kJ/m~2 and 66.2℃ for the quenched PLA/TPEE blend to 53.47 kJ/m~2 and 160.8℃,respectively. It is found that there are a large amount of fine crystals formed in PLA matrix as the PLA/TPEE blends have been heat treated at 90℃ for 20 min. The aggregation structure filled with fine crystals not only can largely increase the heat resistance,but also show a synergistic toughening effect with TPEE through dispersing stress and inducing matrix yielding.
