Thermal conductivity and crystallography of polypropylene/ polycarbonate/ polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride polymer blend

The effect of blending polycarbonate (PC) into polypropylene (PP) matrix polymer on thermal conductivity and crystal structure was studied. The blends consisted of 5 to 35 of PC with 5 compatibilizer (polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride or PP-g-MA), were compounded using twin-screw extruder and sha...
