Rheological behavior of polypropylene/novolac blends

Abstract: The rheological behavior of polypropylene/ novolac blends was investigated with special reference to the effects of the blend ratio, compatibilization, and dynamic cure. The polypropylene and all the polypropylene/novolac blends presented evidence of shear-thinning behavior. The novolac, compatibilizer, and dynamic cure had dramatic effects on the rheological behavior of the polypropylene. Various rheological plots, including plots of the viscosity, storage modulus, loss modulus, and loss angle, Han plots, and… Show more

“…According to the Figure 1, the complex viscosity decreased as the frequency increased, which clearly shows the pseudoplastic behavior of the blends, assuming the Cox Merz rule [46][47][48][49][50][51] . No significant differences were observed between the blends in relation to the exposure time of GTR to microwaves, and also whether or not [35] containing clay.…”

“…Figure 2, the complex viscosity decreased with the increase of the frequency, which clearly shows the pseudoplastic behavior of the blends, assuming the Cox Merz rule [30][31][32][33][34][35] . η* of the dynamically revulcanized blends are higher than the blend 80GTR0/20HDPE due the increase of the cross-linking density of the GTR phase [35] .…”

“…η* increased with increasing PBAT content in the blends that attributed to the high cohesion between the PLA and the long branch chains of PBAT when existed 0.1% BIBP. All the curves presented evidence of shear‐thinning behavior with increasing frequency, indicating the pseudoplastic nature of the blends .…”
