Abstract

Aluminum hydroxide-filled polypropylene composites generally form α-crystal due to the strong heterogenous α-nucleation of filler. In order to utilize β-crystal PP with high toughness to prepare aluminum hydroxide-filled PP composites, the aluminum hydroxide-filled PP composites nucleated by calcium pimelate and PP composites filled by calcium pimelate-supported aluminum hydroxide were fabricated. The crystallization and melting behavior of filled composites were compared by differential scanning calorimetry. The influence of aluminum hydroxide contents on the β-crystal content in the filled PP composites was discussed. It is a novel effective method to prepare aluminum hydroxide-filled β-PP composites with calcium pimelate-nucleated aluminum hydroxide.
