Investigating the Impact of Silicate Modification on Polypropylene-Layered Silicate Nanocomposite
Abstract: In this research, a co-rotating twin-screw extruder was used to create polypropylene/organo-layered silicate nanocomposites based on organo-muscovite. In the nanocomposite system, compatibilizers such as polypropylene grafted maleic anhydride and potassium succinate modified polypropylene grafted maleic anhydride were employed. The morphological, mechanical, thermal, and rheological characteristics of polypropylene/polypropylene graftedmaleicanhydride/organo-muscovite & polypropylene/potassium succinate modified polypropylene grafted maleic anhydride/organo-muscovite nanocomposites were investigated in relation to the effects of layered silicate modification and compatibilizers. …

Compatibilizing Effect of Modified Polypropylene on the Properties of Polypropylene/Organically Modified Layered Silicate Nanocomposites
Abstract: In the present research paper, a series of polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites containing 3, 5, and 7 wt% of an organically modified layered silicate (OM) were prepared via direct melt mixing in the presence of maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (indicated as PP-g-MA, PPMA), and hexamethylenediamine-modified maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (marked as PP-g-HMDA, PPHMDA) as compatibilizing agent at concentration of 10 wt%. Subsequently the influences of the compatibilizer on the morphological, mechanical, …

Influences of Layered Silicate Modification and Compatibilizers on the Properties of Polypropylene Nanocomposites
Abstract: In this study, polypropylene (PP) organo-layered silicate nanocomposites based on organo-muscovite (OM) were fabricated using co-rotating twin-screw extruder. Polypropylene grafted maleic anhydride (PPMA) and potassium succinate modified polypropylene grafted maleic anhydride (PPKS) were used as a compatibilizer in the nanocomposite system. The influences of layered silicate modification and compatibilizers on the morphological, mechanical, thermal and rheological features of PP/PPMA/OM and PP/PPKS/OM nanocomposites were examined. TEM micrographs were made which showed …
