“…Tensile strength and tensile modulus increased to maximum by an addition of PASP+1wt%. mHNTs, and thereafter, tensile strength and tensile modulus decreases at higher concentration of branched PEI modified HNTs as discussed in previous work [12,13]. The significant increase in mechanical properties is highest at PASP+1wt%.…”

“…Polypropylene (PP) is a type of thermoplastic extensively used for manufacturing plastic products [9][10][11][12][13] but PP possess very low impact properties. Addition of rubbery polymer in PP matrix can improve impact properties, which includes Ethylene Propylene Random Copolymer, Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, Polyethylene Octane Copolymer, Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer Rubber, Styrene-butadiene-styrene rubber [14][15].…”

Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are modified successfully using polyethyleneimine (PEI). The HNTs and HNTs modified using PEI filled 90/10 (wt/wt) polypropylene (PP) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) blends and its nanocomposites are prepared by melt mixing technique in presence of dual compatibilizer. Droplet morphology is refined in matrix as well as selective localization of HNTs modified using PEI shows increase in crystallinity of PP phase and formation of β-form of PP crystals. Uniform dispersion of HNTs modified using PEI in PP resulted in improvement in impact strength, tensile modulus and thermal stability. The enhancement in tensile strength, tensile modulus, and impact strength for 1 wt% of HNTs modified using PEI filled 90/10 (wt/wt) PP/ABS blends with dual compatibilizer are 14.9, 20 and 15%, respectively.

Fused deposition modelling (FDM) is widely used method to fabricate thermoplastic parts, which are mainly used as rapid prototypes for functional testing with advantages of minimal wastage, and ease of material change. Due to the intrinsically limited mechanical properties of pure thermoplastic materials, there is a critical need to improve mechanical properties for FDM-fabricated pure thermoplastic parts. One of the possible methods is adding reinforced materials (such as carbon fibers) into plastic materials to form thermoplastic matrix carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites those could be directly used in the actual application areas, such as aerospace, automotive, and wind energy. The current study is focused to take a look of the work done in the area of 3D printing with thermoplastic material and carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic material. The study is attempting to take an overview of reinforcement of different materials into thermoplastic in different ways. The effect of reinforcement of carbon fiber into thermoplastic can be studied by using different mechanical and thermo mechanical tests. The effects of different fiber orientation on mechanical properties, effect on infill speed, and nozzle temperature and layer thickness on tensile properties are also studied. This paper reviews work related to investigation of mechanical and thermo mechanical properties of carbon fibre reinforced thermoplastic composite fabricated using fused deposition modelling (FDM).

Herein, a simple melt‐blending method is utilized to disperse of halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) in polystyrene/polyolefin elastomer (PS/POE) blends. Based on morphological studies, the PS/POE/HNT nanocomposite containing up to 3 phr HNTs shows excellent nanofiller dispersion, while those filled with 5 phr HNTs exhibit nanofiller aggregation. To overcome the nanofiller aggregation issue, the polypropylene‐grafted‐maleic anhydride (PP‐g‐MA) compatibilizer is added to the PS/POE/HNT nanocomposite, which results in improved mechanical properties for the nanocomposite sheets. Furthermore, the addition of compatibilized HNTs to the PS/POE blends leads to decreased O2 and N2 gas permeabilities. Besides, incorporating POE, HNTs, and PP‐g‐MA leads to a decrease in water vapor transmission of PS. In the end, the experimentally‐determined mechanical properties and gas permeabilities of the nanocomposite sheets are compared to those predicted by prevalent theoretical models, revealing a good agreement between the experimental and theoretical results. Molecular‐dynamics simulations are also carried out to calculate the gas diffusion coefficients in the different sheets to further support the experimental findings in this study. Overall, the PS/POE/HNT/PP‐g‐MA nanocomposite sheets fabricated in this work demonstrate excellent mechanical and gas barrier properties; and hence, can be used as candidate packaging materials. However, the strength of the resulting PS/POE blend may be inferior to that of the virgin PS.
