This work aims to study the characterizations
and modifications of systems based on
polypropylene (PP) and nanoclay (NC). In this context, the effects of thermal and mechanical
properties of the compsites of nanoclays with different loading of 1, 3, and 6%
incorporated in PP matrix were investigated. The influences of thermal and
mechanical properties on the preparation of polypropylene/nanoclay (PPNC) composite
were investigated. The results of the thermogravimetric analysis
(TGA) showed that thermal stability increased with higher loadings of nanoclay.
The tensile properties of PP and PPNC
were also studied. The tensile strength of PP with the higher loading of nanoclay increased by 24.40% compared to that of the pure PP matrix (27.5MPa).
The modulus of elasticity of PPNC with higher loading
of 6% NC was higher by 17.32% than that of pure PP. The elongation at break of
PPNC reduced by 53%, by comparing with pure PP. The Tg of PNCC with higher
loading of NC were higher by 8.6%. The degree of crystallinity of PPNC was
higher by 27% than pure PP.
