Abstract

Multi-walled carbon nanotube-polypropylene nano-composite loaded at 0.01–5 wt% of CNTs has been prepared using twin-screw mixer. The rheological and thermo-mecanical properties have been studied using rheometer and tensile machine. The CNTs were well dispersed in PP with fairly good dispersion stability. The effect of the volume fraction of CNT reinforcements on the Young’s modulus of the nano-composites is investigated.
