Abstract
Abstract A series of long glass fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) elastomers and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) copolymer (LGF/TPU/ABS) composites were prepared using self-designed impregnation device. Poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) was employed to increase the compatibility between glass fiber and matrix resin and thus obtain the excellent properties of composites. The dynamic mechanical properties of the composites have been investigated using dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. The results indicated that the storage modulus of the composites gradually increases and then decreases with increasing compatibilizer content. In addition, the low temperature peak of the composites shifts to higher temperature with increasing compatibilizer content. The thermal properties of the composites were studied by thermogravimetric analyzer. In addition, the morphology and mechanical properties of the composites are investigated by scanning electron microscopy, a universal testing machine, and a ZBC-4 Impact Pendulum.
