Effect of the elastomer type on the microstructure and mechanical properties of polypropylene

In this study, the effects of the elastomer type—ethylene–propylene–diene monomer (EPDM), three kinds of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA 9, EVA 18, and EVA 28, where the number is the vinyl acetate concentration), and styrene–butadiene–styrene—and content on the microstructure and mechanical and thermal properties of isotactic polypropylene (i‐PP) blends were investigated. Five different elastomer concentrations (3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 wt %) were added to i‐PP to produce polypropylene/elastomer blends. The yield and tensile strengths, elastic modulus, impact strength, hardness, melt flow index (MFI), and structural properties of the blends were investigated. The tensile and yield strengths, elastic modulus, and hardness decreased gradually, whereas the impact strength and MFI increased as the elastomer content increased. As a result, with respect to the impact strength, the most effective elastomers were EPDM with 15 wt % and EVA 28 with 15 wt % for higher impact strength values. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

三螺杆动态混炼挤出机制备TPV的力学性能研究

在振动力场作用下的三螺杆动态混炼挤出机上,采用硫磺硫化体系对不同配比EPDM／PP共混物进行动态硫化实验。通过调节螺杆振动参数(频率和振幅)改变加工过程中振动力场的振动强度,探讨了振动力场对 EPDM／PP共混物力学性能的影响规律。结果表明:振动力场的引入可以使热塑性硫化体系(TPV)拉伸强度最大提高23％,100％定伸应力最大提高20％,断裂伸长率最大提高28．7％;而振动力场的施加使得TPV材料的永久变形增大,说明其弹性下降,另外对硬度影响不大。

Effect of calcium carbonate on the mechanical and thermal properties of isotactic polypropylene/ethylene vinyl acetate blends

The effect of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) on the mechanical properties (with heat treatment) and thermal properties of polypropylene and isotactic polypropylene (i‐PP)/ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) blends was investigated. CaCO₃, in five different concentrations (3, 6, 9, 12l, and 15 wt %), was added to i‐PP/EVA (88/12) to produce ternary composites. The mechanical properties, including the yield and tensile strengths, elastic modulus, Izod impact strength for notch radii of 0.25 and 1 mm, and hardness with and without an annealing heat treatment, and the thermal properties, such as the melting point and melt‐flow index, of the composites were investigated. The annealing heat treatment was carried out at 100°C for three different holding times: 75, 100, and 150 h. On the basis of the results, attempts were made to establish a relationship between the CaCO₃ content, the annealing holding time, and the mechanical and thermal properties to obtain the best results. The tensile test results showed that the heat treatment was not effective for the ultimate tensile strength, and the yield strength and tensile strength decreased gradually as the CaCO₃ content increased. However, CaCO₃ was effective for higher elastic modulus, impact strength, and hardness values. A considerable increase in the elastic modulus was found with a 3% CaCO₃ concentration for a holding time of 100 h. The maximum impact strength for a notch radius of 1 mm was obtained with 3% CaCO₃ with annealing for a holding time of 100 h, whereas a 9% CaCO₃ concentration produced higher toughness values for a notch radius of 0.25 mm. The fracture surfaces also supported the results from the Izod impact tests. Similarly, hardness values increased with the annealing heat treatment and increasing CaCO₃ content. However, different holding times showed similar effects on the hardness values. The increased CaCO₃ content caused the melting point to increase 5°C, whereas the melt‐flow index showed a sharp decrease as the CaCO₃ content increased to 3%. Taking into consideration the mechanical and thermal properties and the annealing holding time, we recommend a CaCO₃ concentration of 3% with an annealing heat treatment for 100 h for optimum properties of such ternary composites. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Physical and Mechanical Properties of Polypropylene Reinforced with Fe Particles

ABSTRACT

The physical and mechanical properties of Polypropylene (PP) and Fe-PP polymer composites containing 5, 10, and 15 vol% Fe were investigated experimentally. After preparing PP and Fe–PP polymer composites with a twin screw extruder and injection molding, the following properties were determined: yield and tensile strength, the modulus of elasticity, % elongation, hardness (Shore D), Izod impact strength (notched), melt flow index (MFI), Vicat softening point, Heat deflection temperature (HDT), and melting temperature (Tm) of PP and metal-polymer composites. As compared to PP, It was found that by increasing the vol% of Fe in PP, notched Izod impact strength, yield and tensile strength, and % elongation decreased. On the other hand, the modulus of elasticity, hardness, MFI, vicat softening point, and HDT values increased with the amount of iron.     

Effects of peroxide and gamma radiation on properties of devulcanized rubber/polypropylene/ethylene propylene diene monomer formulation

Mechanical and thermal properties of devulcanized rubber (DR)/polypropylene (PP)/ethylene propylene diene monomer blends (EPDM) were studied at various concentrations of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) and gamma radiation doses. The blends showed improved mechanical properties for vulcanized sample. The coupling of DR/PP/EPDM with different proportions of DCP was investigated by X‐ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Evaluation of the developed blends, unirradiated and gamma irradiated, was carried out using elastic modulus, tensile strength, elongation at break, thermogravimetric analysis, kinetic analysis, and DSC measurements. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Mechanical,thermal, and microstructural properties of polypropylene/polyamide‐6/styrene‐ethylene‐butadiene‐styrene polymer alloys

Interfacial agents as compatibilizers have recently been introduced into polymer blends to improve the microstructure and mechanical properties of thermoplastics. In this way, it is possible to prepare a mixture of polymeric materials that can have superior mechanical properties over a wide temperature range. In this study, an incompatible blend of polypropylene (PP) and polyamide‐6 (PA₆) were made compatible by the addition of 10% styrene–ethylene–butadiene–styrene copolymer (SEBS). The mixing operation was conducted by using a twin‐screw extruder. The morphology and the compatibility of the mixtures were examined by SEM and DSC techniques. Furthermore, the elastic modulus, tensile and yield strengths, percentage elongation, hardness, melt flow index, Izod impact resistance, heat deflection temperature (HDT), and Vicat softening point values of polymer alloys of various ratios were determined. It was found that the addition of SEBS to the structures decreased the tensile strength, yield strength, elastic modulus, and hardness, whereas it increased the Izod impact strength and percentage elongation values. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Mechanical properties,morphology, and crystallization behavior of polypropylene/elastomer/talc composites

In this study, polypropylene/ethylene–octene copolymer (PP/POE) blends, PP/talc, and PP/POE/micro‐talc (MT) composites were fabricated using a twin screw. To estimate the performances of the PP/POE blends, PP/talc, and PP/POE/MT composites, mechanical properties, heat deflection temperature (HDT), thermomechanical analysis, and isothermal crystallization characterization were conducted. Incorporating talc particles increased the tensile strength, flexural properties, and HDT of the PP matrix, but reduced the elongation at break and notched impact strength. The inclusion of POE elastomers in the PP matrix yielded the opposite effect on PP/talc composites. PP/POE/MT composites provide a compromise that improves both the flexural properties and notched impact strength. Moreover, the inclusion of talc particles in PP/POE blends induced heterogeneous nucleation and considerably reduced the crystallization time. Consequently, the time required for processing was also greatly reduced. POLYM. COMPOS., 36:69–77, 2015. © 2014 Society of Plastics Engineers

Mechanical Properties and Morphology of Ternary PP/EPDM/PE Blends

The ternary blends of high‐density polyethylene (PE), EPDM terpolymer and polypropylene (PP) have been used as a model low interfacial tension system to study encapsulation dynamics in ternary blends and their relation to the blends' mechanical properties. It was found that the modulus, tensile strength and impact resistance can be improved by PE addition if the PE is localized within the EPDM phase. A range of blend morphology was found depending on the PE viscosity and polymer incorporation sequence in the twin‐screw extruder. In the most favorable sequence, PE and EPDM were mixed together prior to their dispersion in the PP matrix. This practice resulted in a 50% increase in impact resistance when compared to mixing the three components in a single‐step.

Mechanical properties,morphological structure,and thermal behavior of dynamically photocrosslinked PP/EPDM blends

A dynamically photocrosslinked polypropylene (PP)/ethylene–propylene–diene (EPDM) rubber thermoplastic elastomer was prepared by simultaneously exposing the elastomer to UV light while melt‐mixing in the presence of a photoinitiator as well as a crosslinking agent. The effects of dynamic photocrosslinking and blend composition on the mechanical properties, morphological structure, and thermal behavior of PP/EPDM blends were investigated. The results showed that after photocrosslinking, tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, and elongation at break were improved greatly. Moreover, the notched Izod impact strength was obviously enhanced compared with corresponding uncrosslinked blend. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) morphological analysis showed that for uncrosslinked PP/EPDM blends, the cavitation of EPDM particles was the main toughening mechanism; whereas for dynamically photocrosslinked blends, shear yielding of matrix became the main energy absorption mechanism. The DSC curves showed that for each dynamically photocrosslinked PP/EPDM blend, there was a new smaller melting peak at about 152°C together with a main melting peak at about 166°C. Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) indicated that the compatibility between EPDM and PP was improved by dynamic photocrosslinking. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effects of compatibilization of oxidized polypropylene on PP blends of PP/PA6 and PP/talc

The influence of compatibilization on the dynamic mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP) binary blends with polyamide‐6 (PA6), Talc, and oxidized PP (OPP) was investigated. The oxidation of PP homopolymer was performed in a internal mixer by using air as a oxidizing agent (under atmospheric pressure) and dodecanol‐1 as an accelerator at 180°C for 6½ h [Abdouss, M.; Sharifi‐Sanjani, N.; Bataille, P. J Appl Polym Sci 1999, 36, 10]. In the blends, OPP was used as a blend component and compared with PP over the whole concentration range. Pressed film blends of PP/OPP, PP/OPP/Talc, and PP/OPP/PA6 were examined by dynamic mechanical analyzer, thermal gravimetry analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. Mechanical properties such as tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, elongation, melt flow index, and hardness of the blends were measured. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Surface‐modified talc particles by acetoxy groups grafting: Effects on mechanical properties of polypropylene/talc composites

This article deals with the effects of surface‐modified talc particles on mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP)/talc composites. These materials were prepared by injection molding of PP blended with different concentrations of nontreated and treated talc, under the same processing conditions. Differential thermal calorimetry and scanning electron microscopy were used to assess thermal properties and morphology of the final composites. The reinforcing effect of talc, either treated or nontreated surface, on PP is analyzed through the tensile properties as a function of the mineral content (0–10 wt%). Morphological structure of composites revealed that the talc treatment improved the particle dispersion and distribution within the PP matrix and enhanced the interfacial PP‐talc adhesion. The mechanical properties of these composites, especially the Young modulus, tensile strength and elongation at break, were found to be improved respect to PP‐untreated talc ones. POLYM. ENG.

三元乙丙橡胶共混改性聚丙烯

分别用茂金属催化聚合所得的三元乙丙橡胶(mEPDM)和传统Ziegler-Natta催化剂聚合所得的三元乙丙橡胶(EPDM)对PP进行共混改性。考察了增韧剂质量分数对共混物冲击强度、拉伸强度和热变形温度等力学性能的影响,以及共混物结构形态和结晶行为。结果表明,与PP／EPDM共混物相比,PP／mEPDM共混物的脆韧转变增韧剂临界质量分数小,扯断伸长率高。PP／mEPDM共混物的脆韧转变区间远小于PP／EPDM共混物。随增韧剂质量分数的增加,PP／mEPDM和PP／EPDM共混物的拉伸强度、弹性模量和维卡软化点均单调下降,但后者的下降幅度更大。电镜分析和结晶行为研究表明,PP与mEPDM的相容性优于PP与EPDM的。
