Porous nanocomposite films based on polypropylene (PP) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles were prepared by melt extrusion followed by uniaxial stretching. The effects of drawing temperature, extension rate, stretching ratio and composition of the base films on the final properties and microstructure of the stretched films were studied. Water vapor permeability (WVP) results showed a significant decrease in permeability of the films stretched at temperatures higher than 60 degrees C. Porosity, pore size and water vapor transmission rate in the porous nanocomposite films had a direct relation with nanoparticle content, extension rate and stretching ratio. Study of the morphology of the stretched films, using SEM, revealed that the pores form due to PP/TiO2 interfacial debonding at low stretching ratios. Higher stretching ratios cause an enlargement of the pores and the formation of a PP fibril structure parallel to the stretching direction. Quantification of dye adsorption revealed that the quantity of adsorbed dye increased with porosity and surface area of the pores. (c) 2014 Society of Chemical Industry
