Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of macromolecular polymer based composite materials, particularly relates to a carbon nano tube (CNT) / polylactic acid (PLA) composite material and a preparation method thereof. The method is characterized in that a plasticizer is added in the traditional melt blending process, therefore, the affinity of carbon nano tubes with a PLA matrix can be improved and a CNT percolation network can be formed in the PLA. The preparation process is very simple and the preparation cost is lower. The molecular motion of the PLA is limited to a certain extent by the formation of the percolation network, therefore, the composite material shows an approximately solid elastic behavior; and the carbon nano tubes can disperse in the PLA matrix very well, therefore, a solid foundation is laid for improving the properties of the PLA.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polymer-based composite materials, and in particular relates to a preparation method for plasticizer-assisted dispersion of carbon nanotubes and a carbon nanotube / polylactic acid composite material. Background technique [0002] As an excellent filler, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can endow polymer composites with good mechanical, electrical and thermal properties. The CNT percolation network formed by carbon nanotubes in the polymer matrix can significantly improve the electrical conductivity and non-terminal rheological behavior of the composite. The formation of CNT percolation network mainly depends on the dispersion of CNT morphology. Therefore, achieving proper dispersion of inorganic CNTs in the polymer matrix is ​​a key factor to ensure a low percolation threshold and high mechanical strength. [0003] However, due to the intrinsic incompatibility of CNTs and the polymer matrix, large agglomerations ...
