Effect of Plasticizer Content on the Structure and
The plasticizer can affect the viscosity of the blends morphology and properties by changing the viscosity of protein phase. In this work, glycerol with the excellent plasticizing effect was selected as plasticizer, and SPI was plasticized with glycerol of different contents, and then the plasticized SPI was blended with poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PBAT) to prepare biodegradable
Effect of Plasticizer on the Morphology and Foaming
In this work, ethylene glycol (EG) was used as a typical plasticizer in the thermoplastic processing of PVA foams and the effect of plasticizer content on foam morphology was investigated, and other factors that affect foaming behavior and foam properties, such as gas temperature, foaming temperature and holding time, would be mentioned in subsequent articles.
Full article: Physical, thermal, morphological, and tensile properties
The physical, morphological, thermal, and mechanical properties of produced films were evaluated. The results showed that the thickness, moisture content, and water solubility increased with the addition of plasticizer concentration. While the glass transition temperatures showed an insignificant effect with high plasticizer content.
Effect of additives on the morphology evolution of EPDM/PP
In addition, the increase in the plasticizer content leads to the earlier breakup of EPDM and the larger size of the rubber phase in TPV. Our work firstly demonstrates the morphology evolution of industrial EPDM/PP TPV, and thus can provide a guidence for the industrial production of high-performance EPDM/PP TPVs.
Effect of plasticizer on physical and mechanical properties of ldpe
On the other hand, Kormin and co-workers [60] analyzed the effect of different plasticizers on physical and mechanical properties of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and sago starch blends....
- How do plasticizers affect crystalline morphology?
- Crystalline and morphology structures were also changed differently according to the type of plasticizers. The crystalline degree was increased by all these plasticizers with an order: glycerol > PEG > PG. PEG had the best plasticizing effect in decreasing the tensile strength, modulus and increasing the elongation of pure HPMC and blending films.
- Do plasticizers affect the structural and physical properties of curdlan edible films?
- Conclusions This study investigated the effects of various plasticizers—glycerol (GLY), ethylene glycol (EG), propylene glycol (PRO), xylitol (XY), sorbitol (SOR), and polyethylene glycol (PEG)—on the structural and physical properties of curdlan (CL) edible films.
- Which plasticizer has the best morphology?
- These structural changes led to a more uniform distribution of amorphous chain segments and a decrease in glass transition temperatures. Among the tested plasticizers, GLY exhibited the highest compatibility with CL, resulting in the smoothest surface morphology and delivering the most effective plasticizing effect.
- How does plasticizer affect the rheological properties of film-forming solution?
- Plasticizer influenced the rheological properties of film-forming solution. Plasticizer was efficient for the improvement of properties of blend film. The chitosan/zein film with PEG-400 exhibited superior properties.
- How does plasticizer content affect cell morphology in polymer foaming?
- With the increase of plasticizer content, the cell size of the foam increased from 9.30 μm (10 phr) to 12.75 μm (30 phr), and the expansion ratio increased from 2.33 (10 phr) to 3.36 (30 phr). This work has reference significance for the study of the regulation of cell morphology in the subsequent polymer foaming process.
- Does EG plasticizer affect the morphology of PVA?
- It was demonstrated that EG plasticizer exhibited good plasticizing effect, which decreased the melting point and widened the processing window of PVA. Moreover, the plasticizer could affect the melt strength and crystallization of samples, thus, affecting the foaming process and the cell morphology.
