Abstract

In the present study, biodegradable composite films based on polyvinylchloride (PVC) matrix, Date Palm Fiber (DPF), and Copper Filler (CF) were prepared via solvent casting method. PVC/DPF and PVC/DPF/CF composite films, before and after exposure to natural weathering, were characterized by using Fourier-Transform InfraRed (FT-IR) spectroscopy, UltraViolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). Water absorption and weight loss properties of the prepared materials were also investigated. The results of this study suggested that incorporating copper filler into the PVC/DPF composite significantly slowed the biodegradation rate that occurred by biofilter in the PVC matrix. FT-IR, UV-Vis, and XRD analysis revealed more structural defects in PVC/DPF composite than in PVC/DPF/CF after exposure to natural weathering. The slowing down of the biodegradation rate was also confirmed by weight loss and water-absorption measurements.
