Fibre-forming of EC in the PP matrix is analyzed,based on the rheological data,dynamic mechanical analysis and fracture micrographs of EC/PP blends. The addition of maleated PP, for the modification of the interphasial interaction between the PP matrix and the EC fibrils, did not impair the fiber formation substantially.展开更多

文摘Ethyl cellulose (EC), taken as a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer, was blended with polypropylene (PP), followed by injection molding. Fibre-forming of EC in the PP matrix is analyzed,based on the rheological data,dynamic mechanical analysis and fracture micrographs of EC/PP blends. The addition of maleated PP, for the modification of the interphasial interaction between the PP matrix and the EC fibrils, did not impair the fiber formation substantially.
