Abstract
Law regulations, economic and environmental factors are the main causes for the rapidly growing interests in biocomposites’ research, conducted currently in a number of academic and industrial scientific centers. However, weak polymer matrix/filler interactions, common in biocomposites, result in unsatisfactory mechanical properties, which limit their practical applications. From many attempts performed to solve this problem, in-situ reactive extrusion is gaining lately a noticeable attention as a cost-effective manufacturing method with the possibility of increasing the level of interfacial adhesion between separated phases. Moreover, reactive extrusion enables in-situ polymerization of matrix, modification of biodegradable polymers, functionalization of biofillers or chemical bonding between filler and matrix phases and usually can be performed on commonly used extrusion lines. This chapter presents recent advances in processing of biocomposites via reactive extrusion, including discussion about its advantages and limitations. The compatibilization mechanisms for different types of polymer matrix and fillers are presented. Furthermore, future trends and development in reactive extrusion of biocomposites are discussed.
