Abstract

The present article summarizes an experimental study on the effects of two additives on polypropylene/seaweed (PP/SW) biocomposites by dynamic rheological characterization. Storage and loss moduli as a function of frequency were obtained by small‐amplitude shear oscillation tests in parallel‐plate mode. Maleic anhydride‐grafted polypropylene (MAPP) was found to provide good external lubrication, while CNT masterbatch (CESA) promoted fiber–fiber interaction. Han plot and Cole‐Cole plot visibly present the difference between the two interaction mechanisms. A synergistic effect was also observed when MAPP and CESA were simultaneously used in biocomposites. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011
