Modification of Turkish Pumice Mineral and Its Use as Additive for Poly (Lactic Acid) Based Bio-Composite Materials

Abstract: In this study, pumice (P) mineral was treated with silane in order to increase the compatibility for poly(lactic acid) (PLA) which is a fully biodegradable polymer widely used in packaging and outdoor applications. Neat and treated P powders were compounded with PLA at the concentrations of 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt% by melt mixing process. Surface characteristics of P samples were examined using infrared spectroscopy. Mechanical, water uptake, melt-flow and morphological properties of prepared composites were inves… Show more

“…The spectra of treated pumice displayed higher intensity for these peaks due to forming silanol bonds at powder surface. These findings confirm that neat pumice surfaces were covered by silane coupling agent (Dike, 2020). Figure 3 represents FTIR spectra for NBR composites loaded by 30 phr silica and, also that loaded by 5 phr treated pumice/25 phr silica, all irradiated at 75 kGy.…”
