Property Modification

Polypropylene is an extremely versatile thermoplastic polymer known for its good performance/price ratio, ex-cellent heat, moisture and chemical resistance, favorable processing characteristics and recyclability. Due to its uni-versal properties, polypropylene is applied in numerous industrial fields such as electronic and electrical, automobile, textile, pipeline, etc. Furthermore, the progress in its synthesis and property modification in the last decade has con-tributed to the development of new polypropylene based materials with advanced performance. This review aims at reporting on some recent developments in polypropylene based materials, such as nanofibers, natural fiber reinforced composites, self-reinforced polypropylene and polypropylene/clay hybrids, that have replaced many types of engi-neering thermoplastics in high-performance applications.

Recent Developments

The longitudinal compression strength of single-directional fiber-reinforced composite is related to many factors, such as the mechanical properties, the fractions of components, and the distribution of flaws. There are no abroad and uniform opinions about its longitudinal compressing break mechanism yet. Thus, a review of recent developments in the compression strength mesomechanical forecasting models of single-directional fiber-reinforced composites is presented. The damage mechanisms based by these models and the affecting factors considered in them are analyzed. The application conditions of each models are shown, and the model choosing method of combining experiment and theoretical analyze is suggested.
