Thermal Stability Of

In recent decades, natural-fiber-reinforced poly (lactic acid) (PLA) composites have received a great deal of attention. In this study, biocomposites of poly (lactic acid) and abutilon fibers are prepared by using melt blending and an extruder. The effects of fiber additions on rheological, thermomechanical, thermal, and morphological properties are investigated using a rheometer, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), TGA, and SEM, respectively. The DSC results indicate that the fibers acted as a nucleating agent, which led to enhancing the crystallization of PLA. The results also reveal that the thermal stability of PLA was improved by abutilon fibers. Moreover, higher values of storage modulus are observed, which are attributed to strong interfacial adhesion. In addition, thetan delta isreduced upon the addition of fiber content into the PLA matrix, which restricts the mobility of PLA polymer molecules in the presence of the fibers. The improvement of the properties and energy absorption capabilities of such biocomposites signifies the great potential of abutilon fibers as reinforcement in green composites.
