Abstract
Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) and polybutylene succinate (PBS) are advanced biodegradable thermoplastic elastomer with excellent application prospects. There is a growing interest in developing PBAT foam products as effective alternatives to traditional foams for sports, shock absorption, and safety protection. In this study, high compression strength and high elasticity PBAT/PBS foam materials was prepared by supercritical CO2 foam, the effects of the crystallization nucleation agent TMC and the chain extender ADR on crystallization and melt strength of blends was investigated by varying temperature-pressure modes (VT-PM). The rheological results showed that with the increase of ADR, the storage modulus and viscosity of PBAT/PBS blends increased significantly, transitioning from a viscous liquid-like to an elastic state. TMC could promote polymer crystallization, crystal size reduced, and small size cell was obtained during the foaming. Finally, a high elastic foam T/S-0.2-1.5 with 12 times and the compressive strength about 0.59 MPa and energy loss of 14.3 % can be prepared due to synergistic effect of ADR and TMC. This provides a promising application prospect for biodegradable foams.
