Abstract:

In this paper, the polypropylene (PP)nanocomposites containing 1, 3 and 5 wt % of nanoclay particles are prepared via direct melt mixing in the presence of maleic anhydride grafted PP (PP-g-MA) as compatibilizing agent. PP-g-MA is known to facilitate the dispersion of clay particles in a nonpolar PP matrix and to increase the adhesion between PP and the clay particles.The effect of different nanoclay contents on the PP composites are investigated for tensile characterization at both room temperature(RT) and cryogenic temperature (CT).The results showed that the cryogenic tensile strength, Young’s modulus, percentage of displacement at break and the energy absorptionat cryogenic temperature are all enhanced ascompared to the neat PP by the addition of clay at appropriate contents
