Preparation and Characterization of Polypropylene/MMT Nanocomposites

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, study of preparation and testing of polymer nanocomposites (PNC) based on polypropylene matrix and montmorillonite nanofillers is described. Samples were prepared by twin-screw extrusion and injection molding to final shape. Changes of basic properties of these PNC ́s were tested and described in main part of this article.
