Confinement in Extruded Nanocomposites Based on PCL and Mesoporous Silicas: Effect of Pore Sizes and Their Influence in Ultimate Mechanical Response

In this study, nanocomposites based on polycaprolactone (PCL) and two types of mesoporous silicas, MCM-41 and SBA-15, were attained by melt extrusion. The effect of the silica incorporated within the PCL matrix was observed, firstly, in the morphological characteristics and degradation behavior of t...
