摘要
This work reported the crystallization behaviors of poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) with the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and/or functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (FMWCNTs). The crystallization behaviors occurred in the different conditions, including nonisothermal, isothermal and during the annealing process, were analyzed comparatively using differential scanning calorimetry, wide angle X-ray diffraction, and polarized optical microscope. The results show that PEG as an efficient plasticizer of PLLA enhances the mobility of PLLA chain segments, which leads to the decrease of glass transition temperature and the enhancement of crystallization ability of PLLA. FMWCNTs as a nucleating agent of PLLA crystallization promote the crystallization of PLLA apparently. With the presence of PEG and FMWCNTs, the crystallization of PLLA is well improved in all conditions, indicating the synergistic effects of PEG and FMWCNTs on PLLA crystallization.
