Two magnesium hydroxide fillers of different morphology, but almost identical surface area, were incorporated into polypropylene to assess their nucleation properties. The platelet filler was found to reside parallel to the flow direction, whereas the pseudospherical filler resided isotropically wit

## 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
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
This article reports initial results of an investigation whose aim is to characterize fatigue damage induced in semicrystalline polymers subjected to uniaxial high cycle fatigue. Herein we report results obtained from fatiguing tensile bars of high molecular weight compression-molded alpha-phase iPP
