Nano-SiO2/PP composites, containing 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 wt% of fumed silica nanoparticles were prepared using a thermo Haake internal mixer with addition of 1 wt% compatibilizer according to the total composite weight. The purposed of using the compatibilizer was to reduce the size of particles agglomerates and improve fller dispersion in the polymeric matrix. The composites were characterized by tensile and impact testing as well as SEM studies. This study clearly demonstrated that the addition of compatibilizer into the composite systems modifes the mechanical properties. Results of the mechanical properties indicate that due to its characteristic, each compatibilizer gives rise to increase particular mechanical properties. At low fller concentration, PP-methyl-POSS showed better stiffness in the nanoSiO 2/PP composites. While, the addition of PP-g-MAH provided better tensile and impact properties compared to PP-methyl-POSS in the rage of fller content in this study. 2014-05-15T02:58:28Z 2014-05-15T02:58:28Z 2009 Article Advanced Composites Letters, vol. 18(6), 2009, pages 195-202 0963-6935 http://www.acletters.org/abstracts/18_6_1.html http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/34422 en Adcotec Ltd.
