Properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites: The effect of acetic acid
(Taylor and Francis Group, LLC, 2012-01)
The main objective of this research was to investigate the effect of chitosan content and chemical modification with acetic acid on mechanical and thermal properties of PP/Chitosan. It was found that the tensile strength, ...
Chemical modification of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites: The effect of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane on mechanical and thermal properties
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2011-01)
Chitosan was used as filler in polypropylene (PP) polymer. In order to improve compatibility between chitosan and PP, chitosan was chemically modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (3-APE). The results show that the ...
Effect maleic anhydride polypropylene on properties of calcium carbonate filled polypropylene/ethylene propylene diene terpolymer composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
Inorganic filler, calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) was used as filler in the polypropylene (PP)/ ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) composites. The composites were compatibilized with Maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene ...
Mechanical, morphological and thermal properties of chitosan filled polypropylene composites: The effect of binary modifying agents
(Elsevier B.V., 2013)
This work investigates the effects of the binary modifying agents-organosolv lignin and acrylic acid, on the mechanical and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites. We analyse the mechanical and ...
The tensile properties of chitosan filled polypropylene (PP) composites treated with acetic acid
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2010-10-16)
The effect of chemical modification on tensile properties of chitosan filled polypropylene (PP) composites as a function of filler loading was investigated. The chemical modification was conducted via acetylation of chitosan ...
Effects of dynamic vulcanization on thermal properties of calcium carbonate filled polypropylene/ethylene propylene diene terpolymer composites
(Universiti Putra Malaysia Press, 2010-07)
In this study, dynamic vulcanization process was used to improve the thermal properties of calcium carbonate filled composites. The composites were prepared using a Z-blade mixer at 180°C and rotor speed 50rpm. Thermogravimetric ...
Mechanical and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene composites: The effect of acrylic acid
(Society of Plastics Engineers, 2011-06)
The mechanical properties, morphology, and thermal properties of chitosan-filled polypropylene (PP) composites have been studied. The effect of the chemical modification of chitosan by acrylic acid treatment was also ...
