The lmprovement of Compatibility in Glass Fiber Reinforced PA6/PP Blends

摘要

Rheological properties (melt flow index and melt stability), nechabnical properties (tensile strength,flexural strength and impact) of polyamide (PA6) polypropylene (PP) blnds were investigated. Influence of potential compatibilizors: 4,4;-diphenylmethane carboniimide (OCDI), 4,4;-diphenylmethane bismaleimide (BMI) and 2,2'-(1,4-phenylene)-bisoxazoline (OX) on mechanical properties and thermostability of initial and glass reinforced polymer blends was also investigated too. We tried to study the structure of glass fiber reinforced composites by mercury intrusion porosimitry. The influence of compatibilizors on molecular weight of PA6 was studied by GPC, on chemical structure of blends was investigated by NMR and IR-spectroscopy. Addition of OCDI and OX (chain extenders) preserves the product formation as the react with active and carbonyl groups of PA6. BMI has lower reactivity. Grafting of BMI to PP chains improves compatibility in PA6/PP blend and increases PP adhesion to glass fiber.
