“…Straw based materials are generally used as filler in thermoplastic polymers and used in the manufacture of particleboard and fiberboard with thermoset resins . Pristine and surface treated RS were used as additive in several thermoplastic polymers including polyethylene , polypropylene , polyvinylchloride , poly (lactic acid) , polystyrene , poly (caprolactone) , and poly (butylene succinate) .…”

In this study, rice straw (RS) which was one of the major agricultural residues was used as filler in bio‐based thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). Several treatments including hot water, alkali, permanganate, peroxide and silane were applied for modifying the surface of RS. The effects of surface modifications on mechanical, flow, morphological, and water absorption properties of green composites were investigated at a constant 30 wt% RS loading. Silane treatment performed after alkaline treatment gave the highest tensile strength, elastic and storage modulus in mechanical tests and gave the lowest water uptake properties. POLYM.

“…S/G5/V2 (curve-e) treated sample showed all the characteristic peaks of VTCS and SAN. The appearance of characteristic peaks for nanoclay, SAN, VTCS in the spectrum of S/G5/N1/V2 treated samples (curve-f) indicated the impregnation of SAN, nanoclay and VTCS into wood 27 . It was noteworthy that, the characteristic bands of unsaturated double bond from GMA and VTCS occurred at 1638 and 1602 cm -1 .…”

This study concerns the preparation and characterization of wood polymer nanocomposites based on impregnation of styrene acrylonitrile co-polymer-nanoclay intercalating system in presence of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), a cross linking agent, and vinyl trichloro silane (VTCS) as additives into Simul (Bombex ceiba, L.), a soft wood. The effect of nanoclay and VTCS on the properties of the resultant wood polymer nanocomposites (WPNC) has been evaluated. FTIR spectroscopy shows the interaction among wood, polymers, GMA, nanoclay and VTCS. The penetration of polymer and nanoclay into the wood cell wall is supported by SEM study. The distribution of nanoclay in the SAN polymer matrix present within the wood cell wall has been evidenced by TEM study. TGA results show an improvement in the thermostability of the resultant composites. The inclusion of VTCS enhances the self extinguishing behaviour of the WPNC as revealed by limiting oxygen index (LOI) test. Due to treatment, the resultant WPNC exhibits an improvement in all the properties like water repellancy, dimensional stability, hardness, flexural, tensile and thermal stability compared to untreated wood.

“…Using cellulose fibers (10 wt%) and a solvent exchange method, Iwatake et al (2008) succeeded in fabricating a composite sheet with uniform filler distribution showing an increase of Young's modulus and tensile strength of 40 and 25% respectively. Chemical modification of cellulose has been explored as a route for improving filler dispersion in hydrophobic polymers such as polyethylene or polypropylene (Panaitescu et al, 2007b;Rahman et al, 2009;Yanjun et al, 2010). PVA is a water-soluble and biodegradable polymer with excellent chemical resistance and an interesting material for biomedical applications.…”
