High aspect ratio Phlogopite mica was used to enhance the dimensional stability and
mechanical properties of extruded rigid Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) foam. Mica was added to
rigid PVC compound at different concentrations (0-20 wt%) and processed using a single
screw profile extruder. PVC foam-Mica composites were characterized for their dimensional
stability, and structural, thermal, and mechanical properties. Experimental results showed
that the dimensional stability increased by 44% and heat resistance of the samples …
High aspect ratio Phlogopite mica was used to enhance the dimensional stability and mechanical properties of extruded rigid Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) foam. Mica was added to rigid PVC compound at different concentrations (0 - 20 wt%) and processed using a single screw profile extruder. PVC foam-Mica composites were characterized for their dimensional stability, and structural, thermal, and mechanical properties. Experimental results showed that the dimensional stability increased by 44% and heat resistance of the samples improved as the amount of mica increased in the composites. The storage modulus and tensile strength of the composites were also enhanced with the addition of mica. However, increasing the concentration of mica had no significant effect on the impact and flexural properties of the composites. SEM micrographs show good dispersion and orientation of the mica flakes along the cell walls of the PVC foam. Overall, the platy structure and physical properties of mica seemed to have played an important role in providing good interfacial bonding with the cell membranes of the foam, thus enhancing the dimensional stability of the PVC- Mica foam composites.
