Abstract

The preparation of both polymer composites and nanocomposites by melt compounding of polypropylene (PP) with micro CaCO3 content 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 and 20 wt.% and nano CaCO3 content 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 wt.% using carboxylic acid as compatibilizer has been done. The presence of agglomerations of CaCO3 with increasing the content in the composites must be taken into account. The prepared composites were characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Mechanical, Electrical, Thermal, and Physical properties of PP composites and nanocomposites was obtained and compared to virgin PP.
