SYNERGIC EFFECT OF TWO INORGANIC FILLERS ON THE MECHANICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIES OF HYBRID POLYPROPYLENE COMPOSITES

Inorganic fillers such as CaCO3 and clays are widely used as fillers to improve the mechanical and physical properties of polypropylene (PP). With the aim of improving simultaneously the stiffness and yield stress of PP, hybrid nanocomposites comprising PP/CaCO3/clay (montmorillonite) were prepared...
