dc.description.abstractIn this work, mechanical properties for three types of polymeric blends and polymeric composites were fabricated and evaluated. The first group was prepared from (polyvinyl chloride: polypropylene (PVC: PP)) in different ratios of polypropylene (5, 10 and 15%). The second group was prepared by adding 1% ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) to the first group samples. Similarly, the third group was prepared by adding 1% acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) to the first group samples. All samples were prepared by melt blending technique using a twin-screw extruder. The optimum sample from the three groups was reinforced in different ratios of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles. The results of mechanical properties show that the polymer blend (PVC-PP-EPDM) has higher values in compressive strength, flexural modulus, impact strength and fracture toughness, whereas the polymer blend (PVC-PP-ABS) has higher values in flexural strength. The highest compressive strength, flexural modulus, impact strength and fracture toughness were 240 MPa, 2.5 GPa, 69.7 kJ/m2 and 13.2 MPa√m for ternary polymers blend (94%PVC: 5%PP: 1%EPDM), whereas the high value of flexural strength was 78 MPa for ternary polymer blend (94%PVC: 5%PP: 1%ABS). Addition of TiO2 nanoparticles has led to the improvement in mechanical properties of prepared composites. Morphology analysing pointed out that the composites have a homogeneous structure formation, as a result of the high efficiency for each of TiO2 nanoparticles and EPDM in a composite.en_US
