摘要
It is difficult for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) to degrade, which caused severe pollution. In this work, polylactic acid (PLA) was introduced to improve the degradation of PET. PET/PLA was synthesized by extrusion blending. The thermal, crystalline and mechanical properties of blends were investigated with TGA, DSC, WAXD and universal testing machine. The degradation of the blends in soil, acid and alkaline buffer solutions was assessed, respectively. It was found that the introduction of a little PLA promoted crystallization of PET during injection molding process. The starting decomposition temperature lowered from 412.1 A degrees C of pure PET to 330.4 A degrees C at 50% PLA content, tensile and bending strength of blends gradually decreased with the PLA content increasing, while the degradation rate improved. Alkaline environment was most beneficial for blends to degrade. The degradation mechanism was discussed.
