Polypropylene-methyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (PP-methyl POSS) was introduced into the system as a compatibiliser. The composites were characterized by performing tensile and impact testing as well as SEM analysis. From the mechanical test results, it was found that PP-methyl POSS was effectively enhanced the tensile properties of the composites at lower nanosilica content. The enhancement of the properties of nanosilica-filled polypropylene composites was attributed to a better dispersion of nanosilica and increased compatibility between silica and polypropylene matrix with the presence of PP-methyl POSS as compatibiliser. 2014-05-15T07:52:15Z 2014-05-15T07:52:15Z 2009 Article Materials and Design, vol. 30(3), 2009, pages 748-751 0261-3069 http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0261306908001933 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/34430 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.matdes.2008.05.007 en Elsevier Ltd.
