## Abstract The purpose of this work was to study how mineral fillers would behave in a polypropylene (PP) matrix when PP modified with maleic anhydride (MA) and/or itaconic acid (IA) was used as a coupling agent in the preparation of mineralβfilled PP composites. The composites were characterized

Composites based on maleated polypropylene and methyl cellulosic fiber were prepared by extrusion followed by injection molding. The methyl cellulosic fiber was pretreated with tetrabutyl orthotitanate prior to compounding. The mechanical and thermal properties, as well as morphology of composites,
The change in some optical properties with the creep extension is measured for polypropylene fibers at several constant applied loads. Multiple-beam Fizeau fringes in transmission are used to determine the mean refractive indices and the mean birefringence of these fibers at different values of cree
In order to improve the miscibility between the components of a blend, it is possible to modify the chemical structure by functionalizing one or more of the components. This results in better adhesion at the interface between the components and, consequently, in better mechanical properties. In this
