Barrier, thermal, and mechanical properties of polyglycolic acid/polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and liquid crystalline polymer/PET blend films
This study reports the effects of blends of liquid crystal polymer (LCP) and polyglycolic acid (PGA) on the barrier, thermal, and mechanical properties of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The blends, along with their controls, were prepared using a melt-blending technique with a micro-compounder. Joncryl ADR was used as a compatibilizer to enhance interfacial adhesion and miscibility in PET/LCP and PET/PGA blends. Scanning electron microscopy analysis revealed improved interfacial adhesion of the PET/LCP and PET/PGA blends upon incorporating 1 phr Joncryl ADR. Oxygen barrier properties for PET/20 % LCP and PET/20 % PGA blends were enhanced by 41 and 62 %, respectively, compared to neat PET film. The water vapor barrier improved by 15 and 41 % for PET/20 % LCP and PET/20 % PGA blends, respectively. Mechanical performance analysis showed enhancements in tensile strength and modulus for both PET blends, with PET/20 % PGA blend outperforming PET/20 % LCP in tensile strength (42 % increase) and modulus (22.4 % increase). All-polyester composition of these new PET blends promises enhanced barrier properties while remaining both chemically and mechanically recyclable.
