Production of plastic wood nanocomposites using agricultural waste and urban polymer waste
2020
In this study, the resistance properties of nanocomposite plastic wood produced using 5 levels of cellulosic wastes (bagasse, corn stalk, rice stalk, sunflower stem and canola stem), three levels of nanomaterials (carbon nanotubes, nano silica, nanoclay) ) And urban polymer wastes (PP polypropylene and HDPE heavy polyethylene, etc.) were investigated. In order to chemically bind the wood / polymer fiber composites, chemicals and reinforcers (pairing agents) have been used due to the hydrophilic properties of cellulose fibers and plastic drainage. Extruders and hot presses were used to study the mechanical properties and bonding of composites. The results showed that the use of HDPE heavy polymer wastes increased tensile strength, flexural modulus and impact resistance to polypropylene wastes. Regarding the use of agricultural wastes and wastes in the construction of wood-plastic composites, in general, the results have shown that the addition of agricultural waste wastes in several types of plastic wood has significantly improved the bending and tensile properties. Among them, the bagasse stem has a significant advantage over other lignosullose materials. The use of polymer waste and agricultural waste using nano-silica has shown the best results of resistances. In general, the results have shown that the use of agricultural fiber wastes as reinforcers in plastic wood polymers have the expected mechanical properties.
