The effects of polypropylene grafted with maleic anhydride (PP-g-MA) and unsturated polyester (UP) on the interfacial interaction of PP/GF composites were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and mechanical properties. The experimental results demonstrate that PP-g-MA and UP could effectively improve interfacial interaction between the PP and GF. Based on SEM, good interfacial adhesion between PP and GF in PP/UP/GF and PP/ PP-g-MA /GF composites was observed. DSC results showed that the existense of PP-g-MA or UP caused t crystallization temperature and melting temperature shift to high temperature. All results in this paper were consistent, and showed the good interaction between PP and GF, which were proved by the mechanical properties of the composites.

Morphology And Mechanical Properties

The effects of polypropylene grafted with maleic anhydride (PP-g-MA) and epoxy resin (ER) on the interfacial interaction of the long glass fiber reinforced PP composites were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and mechanical properties. The experimental results demonstrate that PP-g-MA and ER could effectively improve interfacial interaction between the PP and LGF. Based on SEM, good interfacial adhesion between PP and LGF in PP/ PP-g-MA/ER/LGF composite was observed. DSC results showed that the existense of PP-g-MA or ER caused crystallization temperature shift to low temperature, and melting temperature shift to high temperature. All results in this paper were consistent, and showed the good interaction between PP and LGF, which were proved by the mechanical properties of the composites.

The super-tough bio-based nylon was prepared by melt extrusion. In order to improve the compatibility between bio-based nylon and elastomer, the elastomer POE was grafted with maleic anhydride. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) were used to study the compatibility and micro-distribution between super-tough bio-based nylon and toughened elastomers. The results of mechanical strength experiments show that the 20% content of POE-g-MAH has the best toughening effect. After toughening, the toughness of the super-tough nylon was significantly improved. The notched impact strength was 88 kJ/m2 increasing by 1700%, which was in line with the industrial super-tough nylon. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) were used to study the crystallization behavior of bio-based PA56, and the effect of bio-based PA56 with high crystallinity on mechanical properties was analyzed from the microstructure.

Fiberglass continuous strand mat(CSM)/poly(urethane-isocyanurate) composites were formed by SRIM process, treated under different conditions and then characterized based on dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) ,transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and the mechanical property tests. The results show that the mechanical properties of the composites could be increased with improving the degree of microphase separation. At a given temperature (120°C), the degree of microphase separation is the highest for 4h and decreases gradually with prolonging treatment time. For a given time (4h), the well microphase-separated morphology is obtained and the degree of microphase mixing is increased at 120°C and 140°C treatments, respectively. The degree of microphase separation of the composites decreases with enhancing the temperature to 140°C.

A completely biodegradable composite was fabricated from an herbal polymer, soy protein concentrate (SPC) resin. Soy protein was modified by adding 30 wt% of glycerol and 5 wt% of poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) to enhance its mechanical as well as thermal property. 3%, 5%, 10%, and 20% nanoclay (NC) were infused into the system. To evaluate its mechanical properties, crystallinity, thermal properties, bonding interaction, and morphological evaluation, tensile, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) tests, and optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) evaluation were performed. Tensile tests showed that the addition of nanoclay improved the mechanical properties of the modified resin. Soy protein is hydrophilic due to the presence of amino acids that contain various polar groups such as amine, carboxyl, and hydroxyl. As a result, polar nanoclay particles that are exfoliated can be evenly dispersed in the SPC resin. From experimental results, it is clear that adding of nanoclay with SPC resin significantly increased the stiffness of the SPC resin. A combination of 5% clay, 30% glycerol, and 5% PVA with the modified SPC resulted in the maximum stress of 18 MPa and Young modulus of 958 MPa. The modified SPC showed a reduced failure strain as well. X-ray diffraction curves showed an improvement of crystallinity of the prepared resin with increasing amount of nanoclay. Interaction among soy, glycerol, PVA, and nanoclay was clearly demonstrated from the FTIR analysis. Optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs revealed rougher surface in the nanoclay infused SPC samples compared to that of the neat one. SEM evaluation revealed rougher fracture surface in the NC infused samples.

The influence of long glass fiber (LGF) content on properties of PVC/PP composites were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and mechanical properties. The experimental results demonstrate that long glass fiber could effectively improve the mechanical properties and storage modulus of PVC/PP. The DMA reveals good miscibility between PVC and PP. Based on SEM, good interfacial adhesion between matrix and long glass fiber in PVC/PP/LGF composites was observed. All results in this paper were consistent, and showed long glass fiber could effective influence the properties of PVC/PP, which were proved by the mechanical properties of the composites.

A relatively new way to improve processibility thermoplastics is via the use of crosslinkable monomers which can act as reactive plasticizers and reduce the viscosity in the early stage of processing. The monomers can polymerize and phase separate during final stage of processing thus recovering the original thermoplastics properties. In this work, the applicability of epoxy as reactive plasticizer for polyetherimide (PEI) was investigated. The properties of PEI/epoxy blends without and with curative were studied in order to determine the effect of the monomer on the processibility of the PEI and the thermo-mechanical properties of cured blends. Differential Scanning Calorimetry on blends without curative indicated single glass transition temperature (Tg) at high PEI content suggesting miscibility of the system and plasticization of PEI in the presence of epoxy while cured blends indicated two Tg due to phase separation. Scanning electron microscopy of the cured blends indicated two phase morphology with PEI dispersed particles size increased in continuous epoxy matrix with increasing PEI (up to 30wt% PEI). In blends with 40wt% PEI and more, phase inverted morphology was observed where increasing PEI content caused reduction of epoxy particle size in continuous PEI matrix.

The melting, crystallization behavior, morphology and mechanical properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT)/calcium carbonate (CaCO3) composites were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), and mechanical test. It is shown that PBAT decreases the crystallinity, while CaCO3 increases the crystallinity of the composites. A synergistic toughening effect is obtained by the combination of CaCO3 and PBAT. The optimum mechanical properties can be achieved in case of the composite (PLA: PBAT: CaCO3=60: 20: 20).

Abstract Acrylonitrile-butadienestyrene (ABS)/poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA)/ethylene methacrylate (EMA) composites were prepared with different blending sequences. All ABS/PMMA/EMA copolymers were designed to achieve the same total chemical composition, in which ABS/PMMA was equal to 80/20 and EMA was fixed at 6 wt%. The effects of different blending sequences on the mechanical and optical properties of ABS/PMMA/EMA blends were investigated. Results indicated that the tensile strengths of ABS/PMMA/EMA blends with different blending sequences were slightly affected, whereas the Izod impact strength of blends significantly varied. The impact toughness of the blends, in which PMMA/EMA was initially blended and then combined with ABS, was approximately twice that of the other blends. This blending sequence also had surface glossiness that was superior to those of the other blends. Differential scanning calorimetry and scanning electron microscopy further revealed that blending sequence influenced the phase miscibility and dispersion of the blends, which led to different mechanical and optical properties.

<p>The as-cast and heat-treated structure of permanent mould castings of AlMg<sub>5</sub>Si<sub>2</sub>Mn alloys with different contents of Ti has been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, hardness and microhardness measurements, tensile tests and fractography analyses, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis. We have established that α-Al dendrites can be nucleated on an Al-Ti substrate, and also that primary Mg<sub>2</sub>Si crystals can be nucleated on oxides, including oxides of Al and Ti compounds. The dependence of the change in mechanical properties on ageing time, and on the amount of Ti in the alloys, is shown.</p>
