Abstract
Abstract The compatibilizing effect of polypropylene-graft-butyl acrylate (PP-g-BA) on the morphological, thermal, and mechanical properties of polypropylene and nylon-6 (Ny-6) blends was investigated. Addition of 2.4% (w/w) PP-g-BA compatibilizer in binary PP/Ny-6 blends results in more regular and finer dispersions of the two phases and improved mechanical properties. Various mathematical models have been used to explain the mechanical properties of these blends. Molau's test and MFI data support the formation of PP-g-Ny-6 due to chemical reaction between the terminal amino groups of Ny-6 and the ester groups of PP-g-BA copolymer.
