## Abstract **Summary:** Nanocomposite materials were obtained by blending multi‐wall carbon nanotubes (CN), obtained by acetylene catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CVD) on Co/Fe‐modified NaY zeolite, with syndiotactic poly(propylene) (sPP). The nanotubes, well dispersed in the polymer matrix,

## Abstract **Summary:** The influence of the multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) content on the thermal degradation behavior of MWNTs‐reinforced poly(propylene) (PP) composites was investigated by using non‐isothermal thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Kinetic parameters of degradation were evalu
## Abstract Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) based nanocomposites were prepared by the dispersion of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in aqueous solution. MWCNTs were added up to 4 wt % of the PEO matrix. The dynamic viscoelastic behavior of the PEO/MWCNT nanocomposites was assessed with a strain‐cont
## Abstract **Summary:** The melting temperature difference between poly(propylene) (PP) fibre and random poly(propylene‐__co__‐ethylene) (PPE) was exploited to establish processing conditions for all‐PP composite. Under these conditions, the matrix must be liquid to ensure good wetting and impregn
## Abstract Poly(propylene carbonate)/starch (PPC/starch) composites with different starch contents were prepared by melt compounding. The biodegradability of the composites was studied by soil burial for a period of 6 months. FTIR study, thermal analysis and morphology observation indicated clearl
