Enhancing the Mechanical Properties of Inherently Brittle, Biobased and Biodegradable Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) Polymer by Cotton Fibre Reinforcement and Interfacial Grafting
The accumulation of fossil-fuel-based plastic waste drives the need for sustainable packaging materials. Stricter regulations and consumer demand for eco-friendly products have expanded the biodegradable plastics market. Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), a microbial biopolymer, is biodegradable but inherently brittle. This study enhances PHB's strength and ductility by reinforcing it with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-coated cotton fibres and further improving interfacial bonding through maleic anhydride (MA) grafting. Compared to neat PHB, incorporating PVA-coated cotton fibres increases tensile strength and failure strain by 290% and 109%, respectively. MA grafting further enhances toughness (ninefold increase) and interlaminar fracture toughness (twofold rise), while reducing helium permeation to 60%. These enhancements stem from PVA's hydrophilicity and MA-induced hydrogen bonding, highlighting the potential of PVA-coated cotton fibre/MA-grafted PHB composites as sustainable materials for packaging and biomedical applications.
