Anti-/pro-oxidant concentration-dependent activity of natural phenolic compounds in bio-polyesters
2017
Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable bio-based polyester of increasing industrial interest because of its unique properties, such as low toxicity, bio- and eco-compatibility. Indeed, PLA is a suitable material for several “green” applications in different fields, among other food packaging, textile fibres and biomedical devices [1]. PLA performances, in terms of durability, are limited by several chemical aging mechanisms, such as thermal decomposition, hydrolysis, photo-oxidation, natural weathering and thermo-oxidation at high temperature [2]. Therefore, to avoid the decay of its physical and mechanical properties, the addition of anti-oxidants and/or light stabilizers is imperative. …
Multi-functional Stabilizers-functionalized Carbon Nanotubes for advanced Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene-based Nanocomposites
2015
Stabilizing molecules, such as hindered phenols (both synthetic and naturally occurring), polyphenols and hindered amine light stabilizers, were covalently linked or physically absorbed onto outer surface of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and the obtained multi-functional fillers (Stab-f-CNTs) were dispersed in Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) aiming at obtaining advanced nanocomposites with enhanced thermo- and/or photo-oxidative stability, electrical and mechanical properties. The chemical grafting or physical absorption of stabilizing molecules is confirmed by spectroscopic, spectrometric and thermo-gravimetric analyses, and the influence of the multi-functional na…
