The results show that the optimum concentration of both chitosan （CS） and glutaraldehyde （GA） is 0.05 wt%. The tensile strength, impact strength, flexural modulus and vicat softening temperature of the PVC composite with 12 wt% of modified CSW are in- creased by 1 Z5%, 40.4%, 0.8% and 3.8% compared with those of the PVC composite with 12 wt~ of unmodified CSW, and by 2.9%, 42.4%, 2Z1% and 6.8% compared with those of pure PVC, respectively. The dynamic mechanical analysis results indicate that the modified CSW/PVC composite exhibits much higher storage modulus and glass transition temperature than those of unmodified CSW/PVC composite and pure PVC. In addition, the modified CSW/PVC composite also demonstrates good thermal properties with a high rapidest decomposition temperature （Trvd） and char residue. The scanning electron microscopy images of tensile-fractured surfaces show that the modified CSW has a strong interfacial adhesion with PVC matrix.展开更多
