Abstract

AbstractSummary: Polypropylene‐nanocomposites were prepared by in‐situ polymerization with the catalysts systems rac[Et(IndH4)2]ZrCl2, Me2Si(Flu)(Ind)ZrCl2 and rac[Me2Si(2‐Me‐4‐(1‐Naph)Ind)2]ZrCl2. The type and size of the nanoparticles and the concentration of the propene were varied. The activity is independent of the type and the size of the filler. It was observed that the filler contents in the polypropylene‐nanocomposites depend on the catalysts system used. The morphology results using TEM revealed that the nanoparticles are uniformly distributed in the isotactic polypropylene matrix. Additionally, the melting points, glass temperatures and crystallization temperatures changed with the amount of the fillers.
