摘要：Because of their special functions, the application of nanoscale powders has recently attracted both industrial and theoretical interest. In this study, nanoscale TiO2, which exhibited a special UV absorption and consequent antibacterial function, was added to a low-density polyethylene/linear low-density polyethylene hybrid by melt compounding to yield functional-composite membranes. TiO2 exhibited an apparent induced nucleation effect on the crystallization of polyethylene, and the size of the crystallites decreased while the number increaed with the introduction of TiO2; however, the crystallinity of polyethylene changed little. Also, TiO2 exhibited an ideal dispersion in the membrane with an average size less than 100 nm, and this excellent dispersion provided the membranes extra UV absorption; moreover, the transparency of the membranes was maintained to satisfy common requirements.
