Abstract
Effectiveness of the content of maleic anhydride (MAH) and polyamide 6 (PA6) on mechanical, thermal, barrier (moisture and oxygen) properties of HDPE/PA6 blends was investigated. Blends of HDPE with PA6 were prepared by in situ method. Molau test and FTIR spectroscopy results confirmed the reactive compatibilization through grafting of MAH on HDPE and PA6 chains in PA6/HDPE blends. Low concentration of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) and MAH reduced the particle size, improved phase morphology and mechanical properties of PA6/HDPE blends. Decrease in mechanical properties of PA6/HDPE blends was observed at high concentration of BPO and MAH.
