용액 블렌딩법에 의한 PPC(Polypropylene carbonate)와 PLLA 및 PC와의 상용성
Compatibility of PPC(Polypropylene carbonate) with PLLA and PC by solution blending
PPC(Polypropylene carbonate) was made from carbon dioxide which is mam gas to cause global warming. PPC is known as a biodegradable polymer. However, the weak thermal property has been an obstacle to develop various applications. In this work, we studied PPC's compatibility with Polycarbonate(PC) and Poly-L-Lactic Acid(PLLA) in order to improve the thermal properties and processability of PPC. The compatibility of blends was investigated by DSC(Differential Scanning Calorimetry) and DMA(Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer). As a result, we could find the composition of 75/25 in PPC/PLLA blends is a miscible system showing Low Critical Solution Temperature(LCST) behavior.
