Mechanical properties of blends of double-fullerene end-capped poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(L-lactic acid)

摘要

The crystallization behavior and mechanical properties of composites of PLLA and FPEOF were studied using DSC, DMA and tensile strength measurements. For PLLA/FPEOF composites aged at room temperature, when PLLA was amorphous, an astonishing around 100 times increase in the fracture strain with a high modulus was observed. For PLLA/FPEOF composites aged at 90 degrees C, the mechanical performance of the composites was greatly decreased and the fracture strain did not show much of an increase compared with pure PLLA. A mechanism for the large changes in the mechanical properties of PLLA/FPEOF blends aged at different temperatures was proposed.
