In this study acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) terpolymer was reinforced with glass fiber. The effects of glass content on the tensile properties of the composites were examined. Increasing the glass content in the ABS matrix from 10 wt% to 30 wt% resulted in improved tensile strength and tensile modulus. To obtain a strong interaction at the interface, SiO2 at varying concentrations was introduced into the GF composite. The incorporation and increasing amount of SiO2 in the composites increased tensile properties of the ABS/ SiO2/GF systems due to the improved adhesion at the interface,. These results were also supported by scanning electron micrographs of the ABS/ SiO2/GF composites, which exhibited an improved adhesion between the GFs and the ABS matrix.

Polypropylene/Cocoa Pod Husk (PP/CPH) biocomposites with different maleated polypropylene (MAPP) content were prepared via melt blending process using Brabender Plastrograph mixer. The tensile strength and tensile modulus of PP/CPH biocomposites increased with increasing of MAPP content. The PP/CPH biocomposites with 5 phr of MAPP showed the optimum improvement on tensile properties. However, the increased of MAPP content reduced the elongation at break of PP/CPH biocomposites. At 5 phr of MAPP content, PP/CPH biocomposites showed lowest elongation at break. Scanning electron microscope confirms the PP/CPH biocomposites with MAPP have better filler-matrix interaction and adhesion due to the effect of MAPP.

The alloy of Nylon6/Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS) with styrene-maleic anhydride (SMA) was prepared by melt blending as the compatilizer. Mechanical characteristics, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and fracture appearances were determined. It was found that the impact and tensile strength firstly increased and then decreased along with the increase of the SMA content. The properties reached maximum values when the content of SMA was 2%. The results of DMA and scanning electron microscope (SEM) indicated that the addition of SMA can effectively enhance the compatibility of Nylon6 and ABS.

By designing different formulations of composites and adopting optimized technology including extrusion and molding, the different composites with various content microcapsules were prepared. The results of the tensile tests show that with the increasing content of self-healing microcapsules in the glass fiber reinforced nylon composites, the mechanical properties of the composites will change, i.e. tensile strength, elastic modulus will decrease. But there is little effect on the mechanical properties of the composite gears if the content of self-healing microcapsules is less than 3.5%, and the technology of self-healing microcapsules used in the polymer composite gear is feasible.

This study focused on the effect of processing conditions on the tensile properties of continuous glass fiber–reinforced polyether ether ketone composites, fabricated by co-wrapped yarn method, under different conditions. Their tensile properties were investigated in terms of thermal and fracture characterizations. The cooling rate significantly affected only the tensile modulus. However, both holding temperature and holding time had a significant effect on the tensile strengths and modulus. Although the effects of both were the same, the optimal increase of the holding time was found to be more beneficial.

Recently, owning to the increasing concerns on the environment, lightweight materials representative by composite are being considered to be used in primary structure components in particular in vehicle instead of metal. In order to enhance the mechanical property in particularly tensile property, at current study, stampable sheets (glass mat which were fabricated by punch knitted technology) were adopt to make glass mat reinforced thermoplastic PP (GMT). In the paper, three kinds of specimens including two GMT which have glass fiber weight percent 40 and 20 wt% respectively and a LFT (normal long fiber reinforced thermoplastics PP) which has glass fiber 40wt% were fabricated and tensile tested. The mean fiber length of GMT and LFT were 6.67 and 1.37 mm, respectively. For tensile test, it was observed that the modulus of 40GMT and 40LFT were similar. However, it was found that 40GMT specimens have better tensile strength than 40LFT specimens. In the case of different glass fiber content, 40GMT had more than two times higher value than 20GMT in both tensile modulus and tensile strength. Referring to the effect of hole on the tensile property of GMT and LFT, it was found that the notched tensile strength of both GMT and LFT decrease when W/d equal to 2.0. On the other hand, for W/d equal to 2.5 and 3.0 have no effect to tensile strength.

The effects of carbonaceous nanoparticles, such as graphene (GNP) and multiwall carbon nanotube (CNT) on the mechanical and electrical properties of acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) nanocomposites have been investigated. Samples with various filler loadings were produced by solvent free process. Composites ABS/GNP showed higher stiffness, better creep stability and processability, but slightly lower tensile strength and electrical properties (low conductivity) when compared with ABS/CNT nanocomposites. Tensile modulus, tensile strength and creep stability of the nanocomposite, with 6 wt % of GNP, were increased by 47%, 1% and 42%, respectively, while analogous ABS/CNT nanocomposite showed respective values of 23%, 12% and 20%. The electrical percolation threshold was achieved at 7.3 wt % for GNP and 0.9 wt % for CNT. The peculiar behaviour of conductive CNT nanocomposites was also evidenced by the observation of the Joule’s effect after application of voltages of 12 and 24 V. Moreover, comparative parameters encompassing stiffness, melt flow and resistivity were proposed for a comprehensive evaluation of the effects of the fillers.
