Pyrophyllite (Prl), an aluminosilicate with a balanced mineral structure and extremely small particle size, appears to be an ideal filler but is rarely used in polymers. Herein, a method for the application of pyrophyllite in polymers is reported. A multifunctional filler is prepared by epoxy‐modified pyrophyllite and incorporated into poly(latic acid) (PLA) to enhance its processability and crystallization properties. Results show the effectiveness of epoxy‐modified Prl in composite film with a significant reduction in glass transition temperature, and noteworthy increment in crystallinity and spherulite growth rate. Water vapor barrier properties of PLA composite films increase over 30% with a range of Prl Loading. Furthermore, an enhancement of the tensile strength is increased by 30% and strain at break by 337.1% for PLA composite films compared to neat PLA. This work provides a new idea to prepare the functionalized pyrophyllite fillers and a theoretical basis to develop the application of pyrophyllite for polymers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
