Abstract
Nanosize barium sulfate ( BaSO 4) particles prepared with dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) in ethanol–water reaction system are used to prepare BaSO4 /polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites by melt mixing method. It is then made into hybrid fibers by melt spinning and subsequent drawing with different ratios. The hybrid fibers are characterized by rheology, morphology, thermal stability and mechanical properties, respectively. The results indicate that the DBSA-modified BaSO4 can improve the spinnability of BaSO4 /PP hybrid multifilament even at high BaSO4 nanoparticles concentration. DBSA can be used as compatibilizer to enhance the interface interaction of BaSO4 /PP nanocomposites, because DBSA contains both hydrophobicity long alkyl chain and hydrophilic sulfonic group. Therefore, it can improve the performances of BaSO4 /PP hybrid multifilament.
