• A novel, facile and cost-effective approach to developing innovative in-situ self-reinforced PLA materials was investigated. Supervisor: Professor Pierre Carreau• The influence of the molecular weight and crystallinity of PLA on the dispersion and distribution of MWCNTs, as well as the rheological, thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties of PLA/CNT nanocomposites were investigated. The research was carried out under my supervision, in collaboration with Yingjie Li, a second-year Materials Science and Engineering intern. Together, we defined the project, conducted the research, and wrote reports and manuscripts on our findings.

Main tasks: Developed high-performance poly (lactic acid) (PLA) system through blending with poly (butylene adipate terephthalate) PBAT and incorporation of CNCs.Specific tasks: 1. Prepared well dispersed unmodified CNCs in the neat PLA (semi-crystalline and amorphous) and PBAT using a novel solvent casting method based on two and investigate the effect of dispersed structure on the melt rheological, morphological, and mechanical properties as well as the effectiveness of using two or one solvents.2. Prepared well dispersed unmodified CNCs in the biodegradable PLA/PBAT blends using a solution method (one solvent method) followed by a melt mixing method (internal mixing)3. Controlled the localization of finely dispersed CNC in order to minimize the coalescence during processing as well as stabilize the morphology of PLA/PBAT blends.4. Controlled the localization of finely dispersed CNC at the interface to achieve desirable morphological, rheological, thermal, and mechanical properties in the blends of PLA/PBAT.Supervisors: Professor Pierre Carreau and Marie-Claude HeuzeyAlso, during my Ph.D., I have actively participated in different projects alongside my Ph.D. work as follows:• Multifunctional fibrillated PLA/TPU and PLA/TPU/CNT composites• Nanoclay Migration and the Rheological Response in the PBAT/LDPE Blends• Super enhancement of rheological properties of amorphous PLA through the generation of a fiber-like oriented crystal network.
