Impact strength, initial decomposition temperature and glass transition temperature of pure PPC and PPC/SF-PA66 composites Via hydrogen-bonding interaction, poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC) was firstly reinforced by polyamide 66 short fiber (SF-PA66). The tensile and impact strength, thermal stability of composites increased when the SF-PA66 content ranges from 5% to Downloaded by [UNSW Library] at 03:31 19 August 2015 2 20%, then decreased at 30%. The increment in impact strength, decomposition temperature of 5% mass loss and glass transition temperature of PPC/20%PA66 is 315.81%, 32.2 °C and 3.8°C, respectively. FTIR and 1 H NMR results illuminate that the introduction of hydrogen bonding interaction between PPC and SF-PA66. Moreover, the network structure formed when SF-PA66 content is higher than 20 wt%. It is confirmed by rheological responding curves that a plateau at low angle frequency occurs. In addition, a significant aggregation of SF-PA66 occurs when its content is 30 wt%, which causes the decrease in mechanical and thermal properties of PPC/SF-PA66 composites.
