Organophilic montmorillonite was obtained by the reaction of montmorillonite (MON) and distearyldimethylammonium chloride (DSAC). The modified clay and poly( l-lactide), (PLLA), were solvent-cast blended using chloroform as cosolvent. The structure and properties of the PLLA-clay blends were investi

This work deals with the effect of compatibilizer on the morphological, thermal, rheological, and mechanical properties of polypropylene/polycarbonate (PP/ PC) blends. The blends, containing between 0 to 30 vol % of polycarbonate and a compatibilizer, were prepared by means of a twin-screw extruder.
## Abstract Two series of biodegradable polymer blends were prepared from combinations of poly(Lβlactide) (PLLA) with poly(Ο΅βcaprolactone) (PCL) and poly(butylene succinateβ__co__βLβlactate) (PBSL) in proportions of 100/0, 90/10, 80/20, and 70/30 (based on the weight percentage). Their mechanical p
Rheological and morphological studies were performed on polymer blends of ethylene-octene copolymer [polyethylene elastomer (PEE)] and polypropylene (PP). The viscosities of PEE, PP, and PEE/PP blends were analyzed using an Instron capillary rheometer and a Rheometrics Dynamic Stress Rheometer, SR 2
