Abstract

Nanocomposite materials were prepared from an elastomeric medium-chain-length poly(hydroxyalkanoate) (Mcl-PHA) latex as semicrystalline matrix using a colloidal suspension of hydrolyzed cellulose whiskers as natural and biodegradable filler. After stirring, the preparations were cast and evaporated. High-performance materials were obtained from this system, preserving the natural character of PHA. However, differences were reported by comparison with amorphous PHA filled systems. These differences were ascribed to a transcrystallization phenomenon of semicrystalline PHA on cellulose whiskers, evidenced by dynamic mechanical analysis. Transcrystallization hindered the mechanical percolation of cellulose whiskers and the formation of a rigid network within the polymer matrix during the film formation by evaporation. The whiskers network can reorganize under thermal aging.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
