Abstract

AbstractAs plastic pollution becomes more serious, we need to find out eco‐friendly materials to alleviate the pollution. Polylactide (PLA) and poly (butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) will be one of the most attractive materials to replace those undegradable materials. However, few studies research the segregated conductive PLA/PBAT/MWCNTs nanocomposites. Herein, PLA/PBAT/MWCNTs nanocomposites with the segregated structure were successfully fabricated firstly. The MWCNTs are selectively dispersed in the continuous PBAT phase. The nanocomposite with segregated structure owns excellent electric conductivity. When the content of MWCNTs is 0.41 vol%, the electrical conductivity of composites with segregated structure is 9.43 × 10−4 S/m, which is about 5 orders higher than the nanocomposites without the segregated structure (1.75 × 10−10 S/m). The segregated nanocomposite with 2 wt% (1.18 vol%) MWCNTs owns excellent electromagnetic interference (EMI) of 24 dB, while the ordinary structure of composite is only 17 dB.
