Investigation on the competing effects of clay dispersion and matrix plasticisation for polypropylene/clay nanocomposites. Part II: Crystalline structure and thermo-mechanical behaviour

In view of the structure–property relationship, the mechanical property enhancement of polypropylene (PP)/clay nanocomposites can also be associated with the alterations of their crystalline structures and behaviour in addition to the general interpretation of intercalation/exfoliation level and uni...
