Abstract

Citric acid was used as the cross-linker to prepare the sustainable wood starch nanocomposites (WSNC) from the renewable resources like starch and soft wood flour using water as the solvent. Nano SiO2 was employed to develop the physicochemical properties of the WSNC via a green path. In this process, starch was grafted with methylmethacrylate (MMA) and SiO2 was modified with N-cetyl-N,N,N-trimethyl ammonium bromide. Three different percentage of modified nano SiO2 (1–5 phr) were employed in the preparation of the composites and their properties were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The morphological features of the composites were investigated through transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy study. Mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties like storage modulus, loss factors and tan δ value of the composites were thoroughly investigated. Thermal stability, water resistance and flammability of the composites were significantly improved after incorporation of modified SiO2. The maximum improvements in properties were achieved containing 3 phr modified SiO2 composites.
