Improving Rheological and Barrier Properties of Poly(LacticAcid)/Poly(Butylene Adipate-co-Terephthalate) Nanocomposites via MOF-۲Metal-Organic Framework Integration

This study investigates the impact of incorporating MOF-۲ into PLA/PBAT blends on theirrheological, morphological, and barrier properties. The results demonstrate significant improvementsin these aspects. The addition of MOF-۲ strengthens the networks within the blends, enhancing theirmechanical strength and resilience to environmental factors. Additionally, scanning electronmicroscopy (SEM) analysis reveals enhancements in the morphological properties of the blends,indicating improved phase morphology and potentially reduced phase separation. Specifically, theinclusion of MOF-۲ leads to a reduction in water vapor permeability, highlighting its effectiveness inenhancing barrier properties. Furthermore, the rheological properties of the blends are influenced bythe incorporation of MOF-۲, potentially affecting parameters such as viscosity and shear resistance.Overall, the integration of MOF-۲ into PLA/PBAT blends shows promising prospects for enhancingtheir rheological, morphological, and barrier properties, suggesting potential applications acrossvarious industrial sectors
