Abstract

The presented article deals with the research of micro-mechanical properties in the surface layer of modified Polypropylene filled by 25% of glass fibers. These micro-mechanical properties were measured by the Depth Sensing Indentation - DSI method on samples which were non-irradiated and irradiated by different doses of the β - radiation. Radiation doses used were 0, 66 and 99 kGy for filled Polypropylene with the 6% cross-linking agent (triallyl isocyanurate). The change of micromechanical properties is greatly manifested mainly in the surface layer of the modified polypropylene where a significant growth of microhardness values can be observed.
