Effect of the compatibility on the morphology and properties of acrylonitrile–butadiene rubber/polypropylene thermoplastic vulcanizates

In this study, the morphologies of three types of acrylonitrile–butadiene rubber (NBR)/polypropylene (PP) thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) (with an NBR/PP blend ratio of 70/30) were compared. The TPVs were (1) an ultrafine fully vulcanized acrylonitrile–butadiene rubber (UFNBR)/PP TPV made by the mechanical blending of UFNBR with PP, (2) a dynamically vulcanized NBR/PP TPV without the compatibilization of maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MP) and amine‐terminated butadiene–acrylonitrile copolymer (ATBN), and (3) a dynamically vulcanized NBR/PP TPVs with the compatibilization of MP and ATBN. The influence of the compatibility therein on the size of the dispersed vulcanized NBR particles and the crystallization behavior of the PP in the TPVs and the resultant properties are also discussed. As indicated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing microscopy, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, and rheological and mechanical testing, the compatibility was significantly improved by the reactive compatibilization of MP and ATBN, which led to a uniform and fine morphology. The compatibilization increased the crystallization rate and reduced the size of the spherulites of PP. On the other hand, it was found that the dispersed vulcanized NBR particles lowered the degree of crystallinity. The better the compatibility of the blend was, the lower the degree of crystallinity and the storage modulus were, but the higher the loss factor and the processing viscosity were. All TPVs showed almost the same oil resistance, but the TPV prepared with reactive compatibilization had the best mechanical properties. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012     

Recycling of commingled plastics by cellulosic reinforcement

In this article, a model study was conducted on the effect of combining cellulose on the properties of virgin and/or recycled commingled plastics with a simulated waste‐plastics fraction composed of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), and poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) (PE/PP/PS/PVC = 7/1/1/1 by weight ratio). The compatibilizing effect of maleic anhydride‐grafted styrene–ethylene/butylene–styrene block copolymer (SEBS‐g‐MAH) for the cellulose‐reinforced commingled blends was also investigated. Commingled blends were prepared in a table kneader internal mixer. Mechanical properties were measured by using a universal testing machine. Thermal stability was measured by a thermogravimetric analyzer. It was found that the addition of more than 12.5% cellulose into the commingled blends was effective to enhance the mechanical properties of the virgin and recycled blends. The thermal stability as well as the mechanical properties of the commingled blends were much improved by the reactive blending of cellulose with the commingled blends by peroxide and maleic anhydride. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A study of the effect of PP‐g‐MA and SEBS‐g‐MA on the mechanical and morphological properties of polypropylene/nylon 6 blends

The mechanical and morphological properties of polypropylene/nylon 6 blends compatibilized with PP grafted with maleic anhydride (PP‐g‐MA) and styrene/ethene‐co‐butene/styrene grafted with maleic anhydride (SEBS‐g‐MA) are studied using a special version of a factorial design known as extreme vertices. Properties examined include yield stress, modulus, elongation, toughness, impact strength and morphology. Comparisons are made between various treatment combinations (i.e. a variety of blends) and polypropylene homopolymer using various statistical methods including analysis of variance (ANOVA). Scheffe's Test and Duncan's Multiple Range Test. Significant differences were found for yield stress, modulus, elongation, toughness and impact strength for specific treatment combinations versus PP as well as on average. Ternary diagrams are used to plot response surfaces of the measured data illustrating the main effects and interactions involved, while allowing correlations to be made with blend morphology. Indications from test results and analysis of response surfaces show a strong relationship between nylon/compatibilizer ratio and mechanical properties.     

Comparative study of maleated polypropylene as a coupling agent for recycled low‐density polyethylene/wood flour composites

The effects of the type of coupling agent and virgin polypropylene (PP) content on the mechanical properties and water absorption behavior of recycled low‐density polyethylene/wood flour (WF) composites were investigated. The fractured surfaces of these recycled wood/plastic composites (rWPCs) were examined to gain insight into the distribution and dispersion of WF within the polymer matrix. The results indicate that the use of 100% recycled polymer led to inferior mechanical properties and to a greater degree of moisture absorption and swelling when compared to recycled polymer–virgin PP wood/plastic composites. This could have been related to the poor melt strength and inferior processability of the recycled polymer. The extent of improvement of the mechanical properties depended not only on the virgin PP content in the matrix but also on the presence of maleic anhydride (MA) modified PP as the coupling agent. Higher concentrations of MA group were beneficial; this improvement was attributed to increased chemical bonding (ester linkages) between hydroxyl moieties in WF and anhydride moieties in the coupling agent. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
