Abstract: | The paper concentrates on polypropylene stability from the point of structural and thermal characterisation of PP/nanocomposites through mechanical testing, X-ray diffraction, TEM and thermogravimetric analysis. Composites were prepared from powdered polypropylene, stabiliser and nano-clays both natural and organophilic using a twin-screw extruder. The results showed that the type of nano-clay affects the morphology, mechanical and thermal properties of the composite, but not only in the expected way. An extreme decrease of PP durability under isothermal load was observed. This paper is presented as the first part of obtained PP/nanocomposites degradation investigation. | ||||||||||
