▎ 摘  要

Although petroleum-based polymers require a long process to decompose in nature, they still have a wide range of uses. However, due to many important reasons such as the environmental pollution problem caused by these polymers, there is an increasing interest in biodegradable polymers. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a biopolymer with comparable performance to conventional polymers. However, due to its poor tribological, mechanical and thermal properties, the usage area of PLA cannot expand and its use is limited to short-term material applications. In this study, it was aimed to contribute to the expansion of the usage area of PLA by improving its poor properties. For this purpose, efficiency of graphene nanoplatelet (GnP) and/or Joncryl (R) addition to carbon fiber (CF) reinforced PLA matrix composites to improve the composite performance by means of improved interface interaction fiber and matrix was investigated. Within this scope, effects the separately and/or simultaneously addition of CF, GnP and Joncryl (R) to PLA on properties were investigated by tensile test, adhesive wear test, DSC, TGA and SEM analyses. All results revealed that the composite composition prepared by simultaneously addition of 10, 0.5 and 2 wt.% CF, GnP and Joncryl (R), respectively, to pure PLA performed the best in all tests and analyses.
