Abstract:

To reduce environmental pollution and improve the utilization rate of corn straw, the modified corn straw/epoxy resin biomass composites were prepared by using palm acyl chloride⁃modified corn straw as a filler and epoxy resin (EP) as a matrix resin. FTIR and XPS were used to characterize the structure of the straw before and after modification, the electronic universal testing machine was used to analyze the mechanical properties of the composites, and the SEM was used to analyze the micro morphology of the composites. The results show that there is a new C=O characteristic stretching vibration peak at 1 754 cm-1 in the FTIR spectrum; In XPS energy spectrum, the contents of C1 (C=C, C—C) and C2 (C—O) decreased from 47.85 % and 40.24 % to 41.30 % and 30.64 %, respectively, and the contents of C3 (C=O) and C4 (C—O—C) increased from 9.12 % and 2.79 % to 20.56 % and 7.20 %, respectively. This indicates that the hydrophobicity of modified corn straw was enhanced and its compatibility with epoxy resin was improved. According to the analysis of mechanical properties, the tensile properties of epoxy resin composites increased by 100.3 % and 157.77 % compared with pure epoxy resin. Their bending strength increased at first and then tended to decrease. Compared to pure epoxy resin, the composites presented a maximum increase in impact strength by 16.8 % and 70.53 % when 10 wt % unmodified straw and 15 wt % modified straw were incorporated, respectively.
