摘要

Lignin is a promising candidate for blends with thermoplastic polymers. Still, this endeavour is a challenge due to poor compatibility between both components. In this article, the effect of lignin esterification on the improvement of the compatibility between hardwood Kraft lignin and high-density polyethylene (PE-HD) is investigated. For this purpose, lignin was esterified with acetic, propionic, and butyric anhydride; its amount in the blends varied from 10 to 40. Light microscopic images of blends show a reduction in particle size and a more homogeneous distribution with increasing length of the ester carbon chains (C2 to C4). Modification of lignin enhances the moduli and strength characteristics of the blends. Butyrated lignin performs best, as tensile strength of blends can be retained near that of pure PE-HD with up to 40 lignin content. An additional investigation of unmodified lignin with reduced particle size confirms that modification is the decisive factor to enhance blend properties; a sole reduction of particle size is insufficient.
