Polypropylene polymer blends

Abstract

Blending of polymers is a method for obtaining new materials with improved properties. Numerous studies have been carried out to characterize the structure, morphology, mechanical, thermal, and rheological behavior of polypropylene blends. The main ways to increasing the compatibility of polymer blends containing polypropylene as one of the components are considered. An important role of polymer compatibilization with the use of a third component is underlined. This article is a review of research on polypropylene blends.
