  • How do plasticizers affect polymer morphology?
  • Among those, adding plasticizer is the simplest and most commonly used way to modify polymer morphology. Plasticizers can weaken intermolecular forces along the polymer chains, thus increasing free volume and lowering the glass transition temperature. For this reason, polymers with plasticizers have improved ductility.
  • How is plasticization achieved in polymer morphology?
  • Plasticization is achieved by incorporating a plasticizer into polymer matrix, copolymerization, or blending. Among those, adding plasticizer is the most common and simplest way to modify polymer morphology. Plasticizer can lessen the intermolecular forces along the polymer chains. As a result, free volume was increased and T g was lowered.
  • Can low molecular weight PEG be used as a plasticizer for PLA?
  • This study investigates the impact of using low molecular weight PEG (Mn = 400 g/mol) as a plasticizer for PLA. The study examines the effect of plasticization on the crystallization behavior, thermal, dynamic mechanical, and rheological properties of PLA.
  • How do plasticizers affect film mechanical properties?
  • Plasticizers affect film mechanical properties as well as barrier properties. Fatty acids such as lauric, miristic, palmitic, stearic, and oleic acids have been shown to reduce the WVP of hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) composite films (Jiménez et al., 2010).
  • 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 adding PEG as a plasticizer affect thermal and mechanical properties?
  • The films were analyzed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and dynamic rheological analysis. The results indicate that the addition of PEG as a plasticizer affects the thermal and mechanical properties of the PLA/PEG blend films.
