| Abstract: | Poly(propylene) (PP) reinforced with short glass fiber was modified with
precipitated nanosilica (pnS) by melt mixing. The weight of the glass fiber was varied
by keeping the pnS at optimum level. The properties of the composites were studied
using universal testing machine, dynamic mechanic analyser (DMA), differential
Scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermo gravimetric analyser (TGA). The amount of the
glass fiber required for a particular modulus could be reduced by the addition of
nanosilica. |
