Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Polymer Science
  • Biomaterials

Background:

  • Polymer-based far-infrared radiation (FIR) composites are gaining interest for their bioactivity.
  • FIR materials emit far-infrared radiation, impacting biological systems.
  • Understanding FIR composite properties is crucial for applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To process and characterize FIR composite films using a polymer matrix and FIR ceramic powders.
  • To investigate the influence of FIR ceramic powders on composite film properties.
  • To evaluate the effect of processing methods on FIR composite performance.

Main Methods:

  • Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for powder morphology.
  • Laser particle size analysis for powder characteristics.
  • Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG) for thermal properties.
  • Mechanical testing (elongation at break).
  • Contact angle and light transmittance measurements.

Main Results:

  • FIR ceramic powders exhibited excellent far-infrared emissive performance.
  • Addition of FIR ceramic powders significantly affected thermal and mechanical properties (p < 0.05).
  • Elongation at break decreased from 333 mm to 201 mm with increased FIR powder content.
  • Contact angle, light transmittance, and FIR emissivity were altered by FIR powder addition and processing methods.
  • Composite blown films with 1.5% FIR powders achieved the highest emissivity (0.924).

Conclusions:

  • FIR ceramic powders can be successfully incorporated into polymer films.
  • The properties of FIR composite films are tunable via FIR powder content and processing.
  • The developed FIR composite films show potential for applications requiring enhanced far-infrared emissivity.
