This work deals with complex effect of graphite nanoplatelets (GNP) on performance of biodegradable biocompatible poly (e-caprolactone) (PCL)/ poly (lactic acid) (PLA) blend, related microfibrillar composite (MFC) with GNP-aided in-situ PLA microfibril reinforcement, and unique melt spun fibers. In dependence on blend ratio, both synergistic and antagonistic effects of GNP on properties may occur. The former effect consists in structure refinement and formation of effective rigid/soft morphology, whereas the latter originates in strong effect of GNP on continuity of polymeric components with quite dissimilar properties. As a result, GNP-increased continuity of mechanically weak PCL at the expense of rigid strong PLA may eliminate reinforcing effect of GNP. GNP only allow preparation MFC with fair properties due to enhanced stability of extrusion and improved melt-drawing. The strong effect of GNP on elongational viscosity aids melt spinning of biocompatible fibers with wide range of properties and diameters. Complex effect of GNP allows preparation of biocompatible materials with enhanced balanced properties including melt-drawing based MFC and fibers, which is impossible in unmodified system.","PeriodicalId":239169,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 8th International Conference Nanomaterials: Application & Properties (NAP)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130149099","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The charge transfer regularities provide evidence about $R_{ai}C_{ai}$ chains presence in the nanosystems. The chain formation is determined by the fact that the Debye screening length has the same order of magnitude as the local values of ZnO nanowires radii.

Adding the condition of the presence of impurities in the graphene sheet changes the expression of the drag current by modification of the carrier's density. The problem of ionization is solved in the semiclassical approximation. The analysis reveals the dependence of the ionization probability on the electric field density of the soliton and depth of the impurity energy level.","PeriodicalId":239169,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 8th International Conference Nanomaterials: Application & Properties (NAP)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130730682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
