Role of Minor Phase Morphology on Mechanical and Shape-Memory Properties of Polylactide/Bio-Polyamide Nanocomposite

The deposited data contain results obtained from measurements: SEM, DSC, DMA, 2D-SAXS, and tensile tests.The attached data are provided in the form of text and Excel files as well as source files typical for the respective software used.The attached data were obtained using the following instruments: Instron-5582 (Universal Testing Machine, HighWycombe, UK) at a strain rate of 5%/min according to ISO 527-2; Q800 DMA (TA Instruments, New Castle, DE, USA) to measure the thermomechanical characteristics of rectangular samples (24 × 10 × 0.75 mm³) at a heating rate of 2°C/min; The melting and non-isothermal crystallization of samples were examined by employing an indium-calibrated differential scanning calorimeter DSC Q20 (TA Instruments, New Castle, DE, USA); The morphology of cryogenic fractures recorded with JEOL JSM-5500 LV (Scanning Electron Microscope, Tokyo, Japan), In Situ 2D Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS), was facilitated by employing a home-assembled in situ SAXS apparatus, where a Linkam MicroTester, TST350 (Tadwarth, UK), was connected to a GeniX Cu-LD (Xenocs SAXS Instrument, Sassenage, France).
