Abstract

Composites of poly(lactic acid) with wood flour which was grafted by melt extruding with methyl acrylate in the presence of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) were investigated. The modification of filler (WF-g-PMA) was carried out to enhance the filler-matrix interactions, while the treated component was characterized by infrared spectrum. Properties of binary (PLA/WF, PLA/WF-g-MA) composites were analyzed as a function of the grafting monomer amount by scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimeter, thermogravimetric analysis, water absorption and mechanical tests. Compared with the untreated system (PLA/WF), all treated composites showed higher interfacial compatibility as a result of chemical bonding between WF and grated monomer. All composites showed higher tensile modulus and lower strength and elongation at break as compared to pure PLA; grafting modification with methyl acrylate led to an increased stiffness and decreased water absorption of the composites because of an enhanced filler-matrix interfacial compatibility.
