“…In contrast, in our study where PLA and PC were blended at 50/50 ratios, there were no gaps and limits in the blend (Figure A) and interactions of two polymers on the breaking surface were found to be very good. From this result, it can be said that the PC polymer is well coated with PLA and exhibits a more harmonious behavior than 90PLA10PC . The addition of GF was found to be effective in enhancing mechanical strengths and this was demonstrated by the tensile test results of PLA/PC composites.…”

“…As seen from the results, the T g value in the 50:50 PLA/PC blend increased. It can be said that the 50:50 PLA/PC blend more compatible compared to the 90:10 PLA/PC blend composition due to the approaching T g values of PLA and PC …”

“…The X c of composites was calculated according to PLA by using thermal properties with the following Equation .

X_{c} ((), % crystallinity) \frac{normalΔ H_{m} - normalΔ H_{c}}{((), ω_{f}) \times {∆ H}_{m}^{0}} normalx 100

where Δ H m is the heat of fusion of PLA in each sample, Δ H c is the crystallization enthalpy, ω f is the weight fraction, and

{∆ H}_{m}^{0}

is the heat of fusion of the PLA. This value for PLA (

{∆ H}_{m}^{0}

) was taken from the literature as 93.7 J/g …”

This study aims to investigate the thermal, mechanical, and flammability properties of glass fiber (GF) reinforced PLA/PC composites. PLA/PC (50:50) blend was compounded and used as the control sample. Loading levels of GF were altered as 5, 10, 15, and 30 wt%. All composites were produced in a microcompounder and subsequently molded by injection molding. The properties of the composites were investigated by limiting oxygen index (LOI), tensile test, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscope, and cone calorimetry test. The maximum tensile strength value was observed for 30 wt% GF reinforced composite as 110.18 MPa. Similar initial degradation temperatures were obtained for the composites compared to the PLA. The maximum LOI value was determined as 23.1 for 30 wt% GF reinforced PLA/PC among the produced composites. Besides, it is observed that the addition of GF significantly decreased the total heat release rate.

In this study, the properties of carbon fiber (CF) reinforced poly(lactic acid)/polycarbonate (PLA/PC) composites was investigated. Two compositions of PLA/PC (90/10 and 50/50) blends were used as matrix. Characterization of composites was carried out by differential scanning calorimetry, thermal gravimetric analysis, tensile test, dynamic mechanical analysis, limiting oxygen index (LOI), scanning electron microscope, and heat release rate (HRR). The tensile strength values of 90PLA/10PC and 50PLA/50PC blends were improved by the addition of CF. The highest tensile strength value was observed at 50PLA50PC30CF composite as 114.6 MPa. Storage modulus values of CF reinforced PLA/PC composites enhanced with increasing CF loading. The highest LOI value was obtained for 50PLA50PC30CF composite. It was observed that there is a significant decrease in peak of HRR (pHRR) and total heat release value for all of the composites with increasing CF loading. It was concluded that CF reinforced 50PLA/50PC composite has better mechanical and thermal properties than 90PLA/10PC composite. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2018, 135, 46881.
