Abstract:
This study was undertaken in order to upgrade blends of HDPE and
PP, two of the most widely used standard plastics so as to widen their
application spectrum. Dicumyl peroxide was used as the modifier for the
upgradation. Optimum concentration of dicumyl peroxide required for
modification was detennined by measurement of mechanical, rheological,
thermal and morphological properties. Selected blends were used to prepare
recyclable composites with nylon clothes by compression moulding. The
composites were characterized by measurement of mechanical and thermal
properties. The composites were recycled and the mechanical propertics of
the recycled material were determined.
