Preparation and Performance of Polypropylene/Modified Carbon Fibers by Physical Blending Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

The films of polypropylene/ modified carbon fibers (PP/MCF) were made by physical blending method under refluxing and stirring for 3h at 130 °C. The structure of chemical bond in PP/MCF was investigated by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and optical properties were characterized by UV-Vis reflective spectroscopy, UV-Vis transmission spectroscopy and Polarizing microscope. We focus on the effects of MCF content on the material hardness properties according by GB/T6739-2006/ ISO 15184: 1998, and the mass loss, crystallization and melting behavior of the samples were test by TG and DSC. The results show that increasing MCF content is conducive to reduction in the hardness and improve the smoothness, and to reduction the crystallization peak temperature and improve the melting point. So we can adjust MCF content to prepare the films used for the gasket within prosthetic socket.
