| Résumé : |
Cast films of two linear polypropylenes (PP) having different molecular weights and their blends with 5, 20, and 40 wt.% random and block copolymers were prepared. The produced cast films were uniaxially and biaxially hot drawn at T = 155ºC using a biaxial stretcher and the changes in structure and morphology were examined and related to barrier, mechanical, haze, and tear properties. The crystallinity and crystal size distribution of the films were studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The uniaxial drawing generated a highly oriented fibrillar structure, resulting in an increase in the melting point of the films. A significant effect of the random copolymer on the size of crystallites was found using DSC, which was also confirmed from polarized optical microscopy (POM). Compared to the neat homopolymers, finer and numerous spherulites were observed for the blends. During drawing, the applied loads in the machine and transverse directions (MD and TD, respectively) were recorded and related to breaking up and tilting of the crystal lamellae. Adding the random copolymer appreciably decreased the haze of the films and hence drastically improved the clarity. Tensile properties and tear resistance of the cast films in MD and TD were evaluated. The addition of the random copolymer slightly reduced the Young modulus and tensile strength, but increased the elongation at break. A slight increase in the oxygen transmission rate (OTR) of the biaxially drawn films were observed by adding the copolymer. |
