Self-Reinforced Isotactic Polypropylene Prepared by Melt Vibration Injection Molding

Polypropylene (PP) has a good combination of properties, but at low temperatures it is friable and its impact ductility is very low. To improve impact strength, a vibration injection molding (VIM) technology was used to investigate the mechanical properties of polypropylene. Yield strength is upgraded with an increment in vibration frequency and a peak stands at a special frequency for VIM; the elongation at break and impact strength are also enhanced by increased vibration frequency. The wide-angle x-ray diffraction (WAXD) curves and the scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) micrographs have shown that, in the vibration field, the enhancement of mechanical properties is attributed to the occurrence of γ-phase crystals and more pronounced spherulite deformation than those seen in conventional injection moldings (CIM), and the smaller spherulites with the existence of β-phase crystals are favored for improving toughness. With the application of vibration injection molding, the mechanical properties of isotactic PP are improved. To prepare self-reinforcing and self-toughening polypropylene molded parts it has been concluded that high vibration frequency is required. Increasing vibration pressure amplitude obviously significantly improves the yield strength and impact strength.

Effect of the talc filler content on the mechanical properties of polypropylene composites

This research examines the effect of a microsize/nanosize talc filler on the physicochemical and mechanical properties of filled polypropylene (108MF10 and 33MBTU from Saudi Basic Industries Corp. and HE125MO grade from Borealis) composite matrices. A range of mechanical properties were measured [tensile properties, bending properties, fracture toughness, notched impact strength (at the ambient temperature and ?20°C), strain at break, and impact strength] along with microhardness testing and thermal stability testing from 40 to 600°C as measured by differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetric analysis. Increasing filler content lead to an increase in the mechanical strength of the composite material with a simultaneous decrease in the fracture toughness. The observed increase in tensile strength ranged from 15 to 25% (the maximum tensile strength at break was found to be 22 MPa). The increase in mechanical strength simultaneously led to a higher brittleness, which was reflected in a decrease in the mean impact strength from the initial 18 kJ/m² (for the virgin polypropylene sample) to 14 kJ/m², that is, a 23% decrease. A similar dependency was also obtained for the samples conditioned at ?20°C (a decrease of 12.5%). With increasing degree of filling of the talc–polypropylene composite matrix, the thermooxidative stability increased; the highest magnitude was obtained for the 20 wt % sample (decomposition temperature = 482°C, cf. 392°C for the virgin polymer). © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of low‐frequency melt vibration on HDPE morphology

BACKGROUND: A low‐frequency vibration‐assisted injection‐molding (VAIM) device was developed to explore the morphology of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) injection moldings. Scanning electron microscopy, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry were used to characterize structure‐property relationships of final products prepared under different VAIM processing conditions (vibration frequency and vibration pressure amplitude) with conventional injection molding for comparison. RESULTS: It was found that increasing the vibration frequency at constant vibration pressure amplitude was beneficial for obtaining ‘shish‐kebab’ structures in the core region of VAIM specimens, and increasing the vibration pressure amplitude at constant vibration frequency was a prerequisite for achieving HDPE specimens with large‐scale lamellas, more pronounced orientation and high crystallinity. CONCLUSION: Both preferred orientation lamellas and increased crystallinity allow one to obtain strong injection moldings with the application of the melt vibration technique.

Effects of wheat straw fiber content and characteristics,and coupling agent concentration on the mechanical properties of wheat straw fiber‐polypropylene composites

Wheat straw fiber‐polypropylene (PP) composites were prepared to investigate the effects of wheat straw fiber content (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 wt %), fiber size (9, 28, and 35 mesh), and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAPP) concentration (1, 2, 5, and 10 wt %) on the static and dynamic mechanical properties of the wheat straw fiber‐PP composites in this study. The tensile modulus and strength of the composites increased linearly with increasing wheat straw fiber content up to 40%, whereas the elongation at break decreased dramatically to 3.78%. Compared with the composites made of the longer wheat straw fiber, the composites made of the fines (>35 mesh) had a slightly higher tensile strength of 31.2 MPa and tensile elongation of 5.39% at break. With increasing MAPP concentration, the composites showed an increase in tensile strength, and the highest tensile strength of 34.0 MPa occurred when the MAPP concentration reached 10 wt %. As wheat straw fiber content increased from 0 to 40%, the flexural modulus of the composites increased gradually from 1335 to 3437 MPa. The MAPP concentration and wheat straw fiber size distribution had no appreciable effect on the static flexural modulus of the composites. The storage flexural modulus of the composites increased with increasing wheat straw fiber content. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation on the fracture surface of the composites indicated that a high wheat straw fiber content (>30 wt %) resulted in fiber agglomeration and a reduction in interfacial bonding strength. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The relationship between tensile modulus and elongation at break and yield and speed of the crosshead at different weight ratios of the blends is shown. The effects of composition and miscibility on the mechanical properties are discussed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Assessing the effect of processing variables on the mechanical response of polysytrene molded using vibration‐assisted injection molding process

The present work is focused on the study of vibration‐assisted injection molding (VAIM) process, using polystyrene as a model polymeric system. This recently developed polymer processing operation is based on the concept of using motion of the injection screw to apply mechanical vibration to polymer melt during the injection and packing stages of injection molding process, to control the polymer behavior at a molecular level, which would result in improvements/alterations to the mechanical behavior of molded products. In this study, the afore‐mentioned concept was verified experimentally from monotonic tensile experiments and birefringence measurements of VAIM molded polystyrene in comparison with those of conventional injection molding process. The results of our study indicate that the actual degree of strength improvement depends on at least four parameters, namely, vibration frequency, vibration amplitude, vibration duration, and the delay time between the injection start and the vibration start. Furthermore, when these parameters were optimized, as much as a 28% strength improvement was observed, accompanied by an increase in toughness. Furthermore, birefringence measurements revealed that VAIM processing significantly altered the residual stress distribution throughout final products, but it did not, however, change the material density in the products. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Comparative study of silica-, nanoclay- and carbon black-filled EPDM rubbers

Silica-, nanoclay-, and carbon black (CB)-filled ethylene–propylene–diene terpolymer (EPDM) mixtures were prepared and subsequently vulcanized. Rheological properties and cure characteristics of the mixtures and mechanical properties of vulcanizates were measured. Rheological property measurements indicated the storage modulus, loss modulus, and complex dynamic viscosity of silica-filled EPDM mixtures were much higher than those of CB-filled EPDM mixtures while tan δ values were lower. The optimum cure time of silica- and nanoclay-filled EPDM mixtures increased with filler loading, whereas the values for CB-filled mixtures slightly decreased with loading. The hardness, modulus, elongation at break, and tensile strength of all the vulcanizates increased with increasing filler loading. The elongation at break of CB-filled EPDM vulcanizates increased insignificantly with CB loading. Among the three fillers, the increase of the tensile strength and elongation at break was most significant for silica-filled EPDM vulcanizates. Remarkably, for 30 phr silica-filled EPDM vulcanizates, a tensile strength and elongation at break of 23.5 MPa and 1045% was achieved, respectively. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effects of processing parameters on the tensile properties of weld lines in injection molded thermoplastics

Weld or knit lines result wherever two or more polymer flow fronts unite. This results in a region of a different level of molecular entanglements than the bulk material. Consequently, weld regions have been observed to have inferior mechanical properties compared to the bulk. Although this phenomenon occurs in almost all the commercially important polymer processes, there has been little systematic investigation. The effects of melt temperature, mold temperature, injection speed and injection pressure on the tensile properties of commercial grades of polystyrene (GPS), high impact polystyrene (HIPS) and polypropylene (PP) are examined. The most important processing parameters seemed to be melt and mold temperature; injection speed and pressure had little effect on the tensile properties of any of the samples. A higher melt temperature increased both the strain and stress at break considerably in GPS. In HIPS increased melt temperature increased only the elongation to break substantially. Increased mold temperature improved the stress and elongation to break in GPS but not as much as melt temperature. Polypropylene showed improved weld yield strength with increased mold temperature. Under the conditions examined, injection pressure and injection speed showed no effect on the tensile properties of any of the materials investigated.     

The stress relaxation behavior and mechanical properties of polypropylene and polypropylene/CaCO3 in mechanical vibration injection molding

The influence of vibration pressure and frequency on the mechanical properties and stress‐relaxation was investigated via stress‐relaxation test and tensile test. First, it had been observed in the tensile test that the tensile fracture elongation reached the maximum at 20 Hz for polypropylene (PP) and 15 Hz for polypropylene/calcium carbonate (PP/CaCO₃), respectively. With the increasing vibration pressure, the tensile fracture elongation would decrease. Second, the dynamic mechanic analysis has been used to test loss angle tangent value of the material. After the dynamic mechanic analysis, the simples have been installed in the universal tensile testing machine which applies the 2% strain on the simples. From these experiments, it has been discovered that the trend of the changes of stress‐relaxation is similar with the trend of the changes of loss angle tangent value. When the vibration frequency reaches the 20 Hz for PP and 15 Hz for PP/CaCO₃, the stress‐relaxation is larger than that of other materials prepared at the same pressure (10 Mpa); meanwhile, the stress‐relaxation of these materials, which has been prepared at the same frequency (10 Hz), decreases with the increasing vibration pressure. According to above tests, it is also very useful to improve the stress relaxation properties via changing the condition of the vibration field. POLYM. ENG.
