“…However, when further increasing the dosage of TiO 2 -KH550, the TS decreased. At a high dosage, nanoparticles tended to aggregate to reduce the surface free energy, which led to a decrease in the hydrogen bonding between TiO 2 -KH550 and the polymers [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ]. It should be noted that a strong interaction between TiO 2 -KH550 and PVA/xylan matrix affected the mobility of PVA and xylan molecules and decreased the EAB value of the composite film.…”
