Comportamento reologico di nanocompositi a base di miscele HDPE/PA6
2012
La preparazione di sistemi nanocompositi a base di miscele polimeriche suscita notevole interesse perché offre potenzialmente l’opportunità di combinare in maniera sinergica in un unico materiale diverse proprietà non possedute singolarmente da nessun polimero. In generale, le caratteristiche di questi sistemi polifasici dipendono certamente dalla natura dei costituenti, ma anche dalla morfologia finale del materiale: il controllo della dispersione e della dimensione delle particelle nonché dell’adesione interfacciale tra fasi (polimero/polimero, polimero/carica) costituiscono perciò parametri critici per il successo di questi materiali. Scopo di questo lavoro è stato valutare l’influenza d…
Graphene oxide-silica nanohybrids as fillers for PA6 based nanocomposites
2014
Graphene oxide (GO) was prepared by oxidation of graphite flakes by a mixture of H2SO4/H3PO4 and KMnO4 based on Marcano's method. Two different masterbatches containing GO (33.3%) and polyamide-6 (PA6) (66.7%) were prepared both via solvent casting in formic acid and by melt mixing in a mini-extruder (Haake). The two masterbatches were then used to prepare PA6-based nanocomposites with a content of 2% in GO. For comparison, a nanocomposite by direct mixing of PA6 and GO (2%) and PA6/graphite nanocomposites were prepared, too. The oxidation of graphite into GO was assessed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Micro-Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectrosco…
EFFETTO DI TIPOLOGIA E FUNZIONALIZZAZIONE DI NANOTUBI DI CARBONIO SULLE PROPRIETA’ DI FIBRE A MATRICE POLIAMMIDICA
2012
Si riportano i risultati relativi all'utilizzo di due campioni di CNT: uno commerciale (purezza 90%, L/D ≈ 50) ed uno sintetizzato e purificato ad hoc (purezza 99%, L/D ≈ 500) come filler per la realizzazione di fibre a matrice poliammidica. In particolare, si è investigato l’effetto della funzionalizzazione mediante plasma sulle proprietà reologiche, meccaniche ed elettriche delle fibre ottenute. La quantità di carica (2%) e le condizioni operative di trattamento al plasma sono state ricavate da studi precedenti. Le misure di viscosità elongazionale condotte sui campioni a base di CNT tal quali e funzionalizzati hanno messo in luce come l’introduzione della carica comporti un netto increme…
Optimization of two-step techniques engineered for the preparation of polyamide 6 graphene oxide nanocomposites
2019
Abstract Different processing conditions to achieve polyamide 6 (PA6)-graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites were investigated. GO was pre-dispersed in PA6 by three different solvent-based methods and, further, melt processed to prepare nanocomposites at two different loading levels, namely 2 and 5 wt.%. The evolution of rheological and mechanical properties was analyzed by investigating eventual changes in the microstructure and polymer crystallinity, aiming at providing a detailed processing-structure-properties relationship for these systems.
PHOTO-OXIDATION OF PA6/GRAPHENE OXIDE FILMS
2014
Graphene oxide (GrO) was synthesized with Marcano’s method [1] and added at 0.5 and 1 wt% loading content to a polyamide 6 (PA6). In particular, three different techniques have been used for the preparation of the nanocomposites: (i) melt blending in a batch mixer, (ii) solvent casting in formic acid, (iii) preparation of a masterbatch by solvent casting and further melt processing. The films (80 m) were photo-oxidized in a QU-V chamber up to about 100 hours. The effect of filler content and preparation technique on the photo-stability of the nanocomposites has been followed by monitoring the change of the mechanical and spectroscopic properties undergone upon artificial exposure to UV-B l…
