Rheological properties of isotactic polypropylene/kaolin composites

Rheological properties of isotactic polypropylene/kaolin composites have been evaluated at kaolin concentrations 0-17.4 vol% at 493K. The systems obeyed power-law model in shear stress-shear rate variations and were shear thinning, which increased with kaolin content. Apparent melt viscosity decreas...
