Simultaneous prediction of the modulus, tensile strength and gas permeability of binary polymer blends

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors employed a two-parameter equivalent box model and the data on the phase continuity of components rendered by general equations of the percolation theory for simultaneous prediction of the modulus, yield or tensile strength and permeability of binary polymer blends.

Isotactic polypropylene/ethylene-co-propylene blends: effects of the copolymer microstructure and content on rheology, morphology and properties of injection moulded samples

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact strength of (60/40) isotactic polypropylene/ethylene-co-propylene (iPP/EPR) blends containing EPR copolymer synthesized by means of a titanium-based catalyst with very high stereospecific activity (EPRTi) was compared to that of ( 60/40), iPP and EPRTi blends with traditional vanadium-based catalysts.
