Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to characterize the fracture mechanisms of the composites. The results show that, compared with 3 mm GF, 9 mm GF can significantly improve the strength of the composite better. Addition of PP-g-MAH, a kind of grafting agent, into the PP-30% LGF composite can result in a better mechanical properties because of the strengthening of the bonding interface between the matrix and the fiber. When the mass fraction of GF is 30% and the PP-g-MAH fraction is 6%, the mechanical properties of the composite are the best.展开更多
