Abstract

AbstractPolypropylene (PP) has wide acceptance for use in many application areas. However, low thermal resistance complicates its general practice. The new approach in thermal stabilization of PP is based on the synthesis of PP nanocomposites. This paper discusses new advances in the study of the thermo‐oxidative degradation of PP nanocomposite. The observed results are interpreted by a proposed kinetic model, and the predominant role of the one‐dimensional diffusion type reaction. According to the kinetic analysis, PP nanocomposites had superior thermal and fireproof behaviour compared with neat PP. Copyright © 2005 Society of Chemical Industry
