Popis: | Plastics have been used in short-life products, which have presented harmful consequences for the nature, because of the low degradation rate reached by the most common polyolefins. This work evaluates the mechanical and thermal properties of pure iPP, plasticized starch (TPS) with biodiesel (TPSBio) or commercial (TPSCom) glycerols, and their blends (iPP/TPSPlas). The addition of TPSPlas caused an increasing on the cristallinity of iPP, mainly for the compositions 90/10 and 80/20, probably due to morphological alterations such as crosslinking, that may have modified the molecular arrangement of the iPP in the presence of glycerol. |
