Faisal, Amri Kamarudin, Hussin, Brig. Jen. Dato' Prof. Dr. irsalmah@unimap.edu.my Chemical modification Chitosan Composites Polypropylene Link to publisher's homepage at http://www.tandfonline.com/ Chitosan was used as filler in polypropylene (PP) polymer. In order to improve compatibility between chitosan and PP, chitosan was chemically modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (3-APE). The results show that the increasing of filler content decreased tensile strength and elongation at break, but increased Young's modulus of composites. The treated composites exhibit higher tensile strength and Young's modulus, but lower elongation at break compared untreated composites. The addition of 3-APE has improved thermal properties such as thermal stability and crystallinity of treated composites. SEM study of the tensile fracture surface of treated composites shows better interfacial interaction and adhesion between the chitosan-PP matrix. 2011-10-28T07:08:20Z 2011-10-28T07:08:20Z 2011-01 Article International Journal of Polymeric Materials, vol. 60 (7), 2011, pages 429-440 0091-4037 http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00914037.2010.531812 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/15122 en Taylor & Francis Group
