Interface analysis calorimetry

Thermal Analysis Differential scanning calorimetry was performed using a Perkin-Elmer Pyrus 1 DSC. Scan rates were 20 °C/min and carried out under a helium atmosphere. Thermogravimetric analysis was carried out using a Perkin-Elmer TGA-7 interfaced to a Pyrus Data Station. Analyses were run at 20 C/min scan rates of 20 cc/min flow of either nitrogen or air (as indicated). 

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) data were obtained by using a Perkin-Elmer DSC-7 differential scaiming calorimeter and a TGA-7 thermogravimetric analyzer interfaced with a TAC 7 thermal analysis controller and a PE-7700 data station. DSC and TGA samples were heated at a rate of 10 °C/min with purified Nj gas flow of 20 cmVmin.

Campos et al. [21] studied sisal flber-reinforced TPS and polycaprolactone, both biodegradable pol5miers. Sisal fibers (5% and 10%) were extruded in a twin-screw extruder with TPS/ polycaprolactone (80 20 wt). Films were produced with a single extruder and analyzed by field emission gun scanning electron microscopy, mechanical tests, thermogravimetric analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. The morphology of the composites with 10% sisal fiber content presented an interface...
