摘要

To enhance the mechanical properties of PPR

PS was added to the PPR matrix. Then PPR/PS MFC with different blending ratios were prepared using MFVIM technology. The results indicated that V-20PS sample had a large number of shish-kebab and hybrid shish-kebab structures and the mechanical properties were significantly improved.

Abstract

To enhance the mechanical properties of polypropylene random copolymer (PPR)

polystyrene (PS) with four different contents were added to the PPR matrix through melt blending. Subsequently

using the Multi-Flow Vibration Injection Molding (MFVIM) technology

PPR/PS

in situ

microfiber composites (MFC) with different blending ratios were prepared. The results indicated that blending ratio had a great impact on the phase morphology and crystal structure of MFVIM samples

which was different from those of conventional injection molding (CIM) samples. PS ultrafine fibers could be formed under the shear field and could absorb the PPR molecular chains to form hybrid shish-kebab structures. Meanwhile

the PPR matrix co

uld also form shish-kebab structures under the effect of strong shear. When the PS content reached 20%

under the combined action of PS

in situ

microfibers and highly oriented crystal structure

the tensile strength and Young's modulus of the sample were obviously improved and the impact strength remained at a relatively high level. So a strong and tough balanced PPR based material was obtained. These results provide valuable insights for expanding the industrial and daily-life applications of PPR and show promising development prospects.
