Journal ArticleDOI

Polypropylene/wood flour composites: treatments and properties

TL;DR: In this article, the variations produced on the mechanical, morphological and thermal properties and on the melt index (MI) of a composite of polypropylene and wood flour (WF) by the modification of the filler were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of gamma radiation on the properties of polypropylene blends with styrene–butadiene–styrene copolymers

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of gamma radiation on polypropylene, styrene-butadiene-styrene copolymers and their blends were studied, and it was shown that the presence of SBS beyond 30 wt.% decreases the PP sensitivity to radiation effects, which results in a lower decrease in the melting temperature and enthalpy of the PP at higher SBS contents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grafting of polyethylenes by reactive extrusion. I. Influence on the molecular structure

TL;DR: In this paper, the grafting of various commercial polyethylenes, such as high-density polyethylene (HDPEs), and linear low-density (LLDPEs) with diethyl maleate (DEM) was carried out in two corotating twinscrew extruders with different screw configurations and extrusion conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functionalized polypropylenes in the compatibilization and dispersion of clay nanocomposites

TL;DR: In this article, the preparation of polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites was studied using clay and three types of modified PP (m-PP) as compatibilizers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization and tensile properties of ternary blends with PA-6 nanocomposites

TL;DR: In this article, the effectiveness of using a styrene/ ethylene-butylene/styrene rubber grafted with maleic anhydride (MA) as toughening material in ternary blends with two polyamide-6 nanocomposites or PP with different molecular weight as matrix phases was evaluated in terms of SEM and TEM morphology, WAXD, capillary rheometry, and tensile properties determination.
