Adhesion dynamics for cellulose nanocomposites.
Abstract
The efficiency of poly(ϵ-caprolactone) (PCL) as a matrix polymer for cellulose nanocomposites has been investigated at the macromolecular contact level using atomic force microscopy in a colloidal probe configuration. Model cellulose microspheres grafted with PCL were prepared via ring-opening polymerization. Force measurements between the functionalized particles revealed the adhesion to be highly dependent on the contact time because of a diffusion-controlled mechanism. Moreover, an increase of the temperature to 60 °C (close to Tm for the PCL graft) greatly enhanced the adhesion at the polymer−polymer interface, demonstrating the importance of entanglements in the annealing of composite materials.
