Effect of nanoSiO2 Additive of Some Mechanical and Water Absorption of Polyvinyl Alchol/Chitosan Blends

Abstract: Polyvinyl alcohol/Chitosan blend (PVA/CC(50:50) and (PVA/CC/10wt% SiO2) composite, were prepared by casting method on a glass plate. Poly (vinyl alcohol)-chitosan blend films were prepared with a thickness about 250 micron. The crystalline structure of PVA and fingerprint of semicrystalline of chitosan was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The tensile results show that the tensile strength and Young's modulus of these hybrid films were greatly improved compared to the neat PVA film which was 10.86 MPa, 82GPa res… Show more

“…The XRD patterns of PLA/10% SiO2 and PLA/5% SiO2/5% Al2O3 composite films show an increase in the characteristic diffraction peaks of PLA. Therefore, the presence of both SiO2 and Al2O3 particles increases the crystallinity, which is due to the nucleating effect of these particles with PLA, and more crystalline structures develop in the polymer, which has a great impact on the crystallinity of composite films [23,30].…”
