Influence of Compatibilizers on the Morphology, Mechanical, Thermal andRheological Properties of Polypropylene/Organomuscovite Nanocomposites
Abstract: In this study, the effects of two different compatibilizer types-maleated polypropylene and hexamethylenediamine modified maleated polypropylene-on the characteristics of a polypropylene/maleated polypropylene/organo-muscovite clay nanocomposite were investigated. By combining polypropylene with three different levels of organo-muscovite clay content, two distinct compatibilizers were used to make the nanocomposites, each with a fixed amount of 10 weight percent. The compatibilizer's effects on the morphological, mechanical, thermal, and rheological characteristics of nanocomposites were then …
