New PVC/ABS and CoCl2 composites were synthesized using solution casting techniques, showing smooth distribution of constituents and improved mechanical properties. The addition of CoCl2 enhanced thermal stability due to crosslinking, making these composites promising for applications in biomedics and electronics.
New PVC/ABS and CoCl2 composites with various concentrations of cobalt chloride (<= 10 wt. %) were synthesized by solution casting techniques and investigated by spectro-chemical, morphological and thermal mode of characterization. The FT-IR, XRD and SEM analyses proved the smooth distribution and uniformity of the constituents of the composite materials. Thermal behavior showed that the addition of CoCl2 to the PVC/ABS blends enhanced the thermal stability and improved mechanical properties of composites due to crosslinking between PVC/ABS blend and CoCl2. Thus based on their remarkable morphology, thermomechanical stability and promising bioactivities, the synthesized composites could be applied for high performance polymeric materials in the field of biomedics and electronics.
