Morphology analysis of PLA/PTT fractured surfaces demonstrated the compatibility of its components. Thermogravimetric analysis revealed that the thermodegradation of a PLA/PTT sample was higher than that of PLA. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to evaluate the crystallization behavior. The Avrami equation described the isothermal crystallization kinetics. The Hoffman-Weeks parameters indicated that the PLA presence increased slightly the PTT nucleation. The tests of PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT specimens in tension showed that a percent elongation of the PLA/PTT composite was between that of PLA and PTT; however, the tensile strength of the PLA/PTT composite was similar to that of PLA.

The Avrami equation described the isothermal crystallization kinetics. The Hoffman-Weeks parameters indicated that the PLA presence increased slightly the PTT nucleation. The tests o f PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT specimens in tension showed that a percent elongation o f the PLA/PTT composite was between that o f PLA and PTT; however, the tensile strength o f the PLA/PTT composite was similar to that o f PLA. K eyw ords: poly(lactic acid), poly(trim ethylene terephthalate), tensile properties, nucleation, crystallization. In tro d u c tio n . Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a biodegradable polymer, differing from m ost of therm oplastic polym ers since it is com pounded from such renewable materials, as sugar cane or corn starch. PLA possesses quite prom ising properties; however, the brittleness o f the m aterial restricts its applicability and processing abilities [1]. Poly(trim ethylene terephthalate) (PTT) has a structure sim ilar to that o f polybutylene terephthalate and polyethylene terephthalate [2]. As com pared to these two other terephthalates, PTT dem onstrates higher bending strength, w hich m akes it suitable for m anufacturing different materials, such as textiles or engineering plastics [2-4]. The brittleness o f PLA can be im proved by blending it w ith an elastom er [5-22]. The high therm ostability o f PTT, blended w ith PLA [23] provided the conditions for studying the nonisothermal crystallization o f PTT/PLA. However, the isothermal crystallization behavior o f PLA/PTT com posites has not been reported. In the present study, PTT w as used to enhance the PLA elongation at break through the m elt-com pounding method. The H offm an-W eeks equation was applied to predict the equilibrium m elting point (Tm ). The effect o f PLA on the melting, crystallization, and therm ostability o f PLA/PTT specim ens was examined. D ifferential scanning calorim etry (DSC) and w ide-angle X -ray diffraction (W XRD) w ere used to analyze the crystallization behavior o f a PLA/PTT composite. 1. E xperim en ta l. PLA w ith a m elt flow index o f 4 -8 g/10 m in (Nature W orks 2002D) and PTT w ith a m elt flow index o f 25 g/10 m in (ASTM -D1238), were supplied by Shell © C.-Y. TSOU, C.-L. WU, Y.-C.

Ltd., USA. PLA/PTT com posites (70/30 w eight ratio) w ere prepared using a Brabender at 50 rpm and 250oC for 4 min. PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT com posites were studied by therm ogravim etric analysis (TGA), DSC, W XRD, and scanning electron m icroscopy (SEM). TG A was run in the range o f 30 to 650°C at a heating rate o f 20°C/min. In DSC, the first round was at a rate o f 100°C/min w ithin 0-250°C for 3 m in to avoid therm al history effects, followed by a decrease from 250°C to 20°C at a rate o f 5, 10, 20, and 30°C/min, respectively, to observe the m elt crystallization. W XRD spectra were obtained using a Rigaku m odel RU-H3R. The data were recorded over the range o f 10 to 35° w ith a scanning interval o f 0.05°. 2. R esu lts an d D iscussion. 2.1. Therm ogravim etric Analysis. The TGA curves for PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT are shown in Fig. 1. The PLA therm ostability was im proved by the PTT addition, having the higher thermostability. Table 1 lists TG A values, dem onstrating that at 5 and 10 wt.% losses, the tem perature o f the com posite was considerably higher than that o f each constituent due to the PTT addition to the blend.

The Tg o f PLA in the com posite becam e a little higher w ith the addition o f PTT. A slight cold crystallization o f the PLA/PTT com posite m ight apparently be due to the partial PTT and PLA compatibility. The nonisothermal crystallization o f PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT w as studied w ith DSC. The cooling rate ranged from 5 to 30°C/min. The crystallinity data for PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT samples at different cooling rates are sum m arized in Table 2. As is seen, PLA exhibited no crystallinity because o f its slow crystallization rate, neat PLA was unable to crystallize.

The enthalpy is determ ined as X t = (A H (DSc ) / AH(!00%) )(100/ W ), (1) w here A H (100%) PTT = 145.48 J/g [24] and W is the w eight fraction o f PTT in the sample. For PTT and a PLA/PTT com posite, X t decreased w ith a cooling rate. The data for the nonisotherm al crystallization are listed in Table 3. The m elt crystallization tem perature (Tmc ) and X t o f the PLA /PTT com posite is higher than that o f neat PTT. The PLA com ponent in the PLA/PTT com posite can enhance the PTT crystallization rate. The relative crystallinity o f the PLA/PTT com posite at several isothermal crystallization tem peratures is given in Fig. 3. The crystallization requires m ere nucleation and accum ulation o f the m olecular chains, although higher isotherm al crystallization tem peratures hinder nucleation because the m olecular chain m otion is easier. Therefore, the nucleation can be controlled; at low tem peratures, the nucleation can easily be reached, but the m olecular m otion is m ore difficult. 192 ISSN 0556-171X. npo6neMbi nponnocmu, 2017, № 1 Isothermal Crystallization Kinetics Effect T a b l e 3 Avrami Parameters for Various Crystallization Temperatures Sample Tc , °C A H , J/g X t , % t1/2> min n K , s_1 R 2 PTT 197 50.5 50.6 0.46 2.21 3.894 0.998 199 48.6 48.7 0.71 2.27 1.801 0.997 201 45.3 45.5 1.04 2.55 0.676 0.998 203 41.4 41.4 1.51 2.73 0.173 0.999 205 40.5 40.5 2.06 2.85 0.041 0.997 PLA/PTT 197 17.2 57.3 0.71 2.17 1.508 0.999 199 16.0 53.3 0.86 2.27 0.916 0.998 201 14.1 47.0 1.21 2.45 0.391 0.999 203 13.1 43.7 1.81 2.45 0.134 0.997 205 12.3 41.0 2.67 2.50 0.045 0.999 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Time (min) Fig. 3. Relative crystallinity of PLA/PTT. The Avrami calculation defined the isotherm al crystallization kinetics o f PTT, PTT, and PLA /PTT samples [25]. The relation betw een X t and tim e t is indicated by 1— X t = exp(— k t n ). (2) Taking the double natural logarithm o f this calculation, w e get ln[ ln(1 X t ) ]= n ln t + ln k , (3) where n is the Avram i exponent and k is the kinetic param eter o f the isotherm al crystallization. Equation (3) was used to p lo t the linear curves for PLA/PTT data in Fig. 4; the slope was equal to the A vram i exponent n for the y-intercept corresponding to the kinetic param eter (k). Those values for all samples are cited in Table 3. The X t value o f the PLA/PTT com posite shows unessential differences at varying crystallization temperatures. The Avrami exponents n for the PLA/PTT com posite were w ithin 2 .0-3.0. D issim ilar n values indicate unlike crystalline forms and nucleation of crystals. The t y 2 value for isotherm al crystallization w as deduced from the equation: t m = ( l n 2 к f n . (4) ISSN 0556-171X. Проблемы прочности, 2017, № 1 193 C.-Y. Tsou, C.-L. Wu, Y.-C. Tseng, et at. Fig. 4. Avrami plots for PLA/PTT samples at different isothermal crystallization temperatures. The k value for all the samples declined w ith the isotherm al crystallization tem perature, w hich is due to the low er viscosity at higher tem peratures; thus, the kinetic energy o f the polym er was growing. However, increasing entropy inhibits the form ation o f crystal nuclei, causing a decrease in the crystal growth. In contrast, the t 1/2 values for all the samples increased w ith temperature. The presence o f PLA hinders the m otion o f PTT m olecular chains; then, the k value for PTT w as reduced due to PLA. The H offm an-W eeks equation (Tc / y )+ ( 1 - 1 y T (5) is usually applied to estimate the Tm value o f sem icrystalline materials. The m elting point (Tm ) o f the m ain crystallization process was set as Tm because o f num erous m elting peaks appearing during the PTT m elting [26]. The T ° value can be obtained from the relationship for Tc and T (Fig. 5). In the scheme, linear regression analysis for num erous points was perform ed, and by extrapolation, the regression line intersected w ith the line T = T ̂m *- c • As is shown in Table 4, Tf0 for the PLA/PTT com posite was slightly higher than Tm o f neat PTT. The m orphology factor y = L /L , w hich is the thickness ratio o f m olecular chains. W ith know n Tm, the difference in the crystallization regim e can be found from the L auritzen-H offm an equation for the spherulite growing rate: : G0 e x p [- U * /r (Tc - Tx ) ]e x p [-K g /T c ( A T ) f ], (6) ( / 11/2 ) = ( ^ t i /2 )o e x p [-U * /R (T c - T„ )]exp[ - K g /T c ( A T ) f ] .

The higher K g value corresponds to the better nucleation capability [27, 28]. Consequently, PLA at 70% loading slightly enhanced the PTT nucleation. 2.3. W XRD. The X -ray diffraction peak positions for PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT are shown in Fig. 7. The peaks for PLA w ere observed at the angles 20 o f approxim ately 16.6, 19, and 22.2°, w hich correspond to the reflection planes o f (1— 1— 0), (2— 0 — 3), and (1— 0 — 5), respectively [28]. The PTT peaks were detected at the angles 20 o f approximately 27.4, 24.7, and 23.5°, w hich correspond to the reflection planes o f (1— 0 — 4), (1— 1— 3), and (1— 0 — 2), respectively [29]; and at other angles 20 o f approxim ately 21.7, 19.5, 16.7, and 15.2°, w hich are consistent w ith the reflection planes o f (— 1— 0 — 2), (0— 1— 2), (0— 1— 2), and (0— 1— 0), respectively [29]. However, the PLA/PTT com posite exhibited the characteristic peaks o f both PLA and PTT, im plying that PLA does not change the PTT crystal forms. 2000 ' A ___________________P LA /P TT 0-1----- 1----- >----- 1----- 1----- 1----- 1----- 1------1----- 1----- 1 250-1----- 1----- 1----- 1----- 1----- 1----- 1----- 1----- 1----- 1----- 1 10 15 20 25 30 10 15 20 25 30 20 (deg) 20 (deg) a b Fig. 7.

The SEM images o f the fractured surfaces o f PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT are illustrated in Fig. 8. The fractured surface o f PLA had a smooth m orphology (Fig. 8a). A fter blending PLA w ith PTT, some PTT pellets dispersed in the PLA matrix (Fig. 8c). However, the pellets were not seen clearly because the PTT m olecules are partially com patible w ith the PLA ones. 2.5. Tensile Properties. The tensile properties o f PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT are depicted in Fig. 9. The elongation at break for PLA was only 4.1%. A fter blending PLA w ith PTT, the PLA/PTT com posite revealed a substantial increase in the elongation at break (6.2%) since PTT is rather elastic and imparts toughness to PLA. Furtherm ore, the tensile strength o f PLA was sim ilar to that o f the PLA/PTT com posite; this m ight be because o f the partial com patibility o f PLA and PTT. 196 ISSN 0556-171X. npoôneMbi npounocmu, 2017, № 1 Isothermal Crystallization Kinetics Effect a b c Fig. 8.

The TG A curves revealed that the therm ostability o f PLA/PTT com posites was higher than that o f pure PLA because o f the higher therm ostability o f PTT. In addition, the presence o f PLA in the PLA/PTT com posites slightly increased the PTT nucleation. Therefore, PLA can increase the crystallization rate o f PTT in the PLA/PTT com posites. W XRD indicated that PLA did not change the typical peaks and crystal forms o f PTT. Furtherm ore, the elongation at break o f PLA w as enhanced w ith the PTT addition, and the tensile strength o f the PLA/PTT com posite was sim ilar to that o f PLA because of the partial com patibility o f PLA and PTT. 1.

A poly(lactic acid)/poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PLA/PTT) composite was prepared by melt blending to improve the PTT crystallization rate. Morphology analysis of PLA/PTT fractured surfaces demonstrated the compatibility of its components. Thermogravimetric analysis revealed that the thermodegradation of a PLA/PTT sample was higher than that of PLA. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to evaluate the crystallization behavior. The Avrami equation described the isothermal crystallization kinetics. The Hoffman-Weeks parameters indicated that the PLA presence increased slightly the PTT nucleation. The tests of PLA, PTT, and PLA/PTT specimens in tension showed that a percent elongation of the PLA/PTT composite was between that of PLA and PTT; however, the tensile strength of the PLA/PTT composite was similar to that of PLA.
