“…It is observed that with increasing RPP content, roughness of the blend was also increased. It is similar to the observation reported by sutar et al 38 that the roughness was maximum for HDPE/PP composite at a 50 wt % of PP, and it was reduced with increasing HDPE content. It was already established that there is a partial compatibility or no compatibility between the RPP and RLDPE phase after the addition of EPDM from thermal and morphological analysis.…”

The recycled polyolefin waste which included polypropylene (PP) and low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) were collected from hospital and subsequently sterilized by 1% sodium hypochlorite and followed by microwave disinfection. The sterilized BMW were analyzed for growth of pathogens if any. FTIR analysis was performed to analyze the composition of the waste as well as Carbonyl index to evaluate the extent of degradation post sterilization process. Recycled blends were prepared using melt extrusion technique and ethylene diene monomer was added to balance the interface between the varied polyolefin waste. Blends were studied for mechanical and morphological properties. Thermal analysis employed DSC revealed two different peaks of crystallization and melting revealing incompatibility in the blends. DMA showed reduction in the modulus with incorporation of LDPE and EPDM. SEM analysis confirmed the homogeneous distribution of RLD droplets with reduction in the interparticle distance indicates the partial miscibility. © 2022 Society of Industrial Chemistry.

Thermoplastic polymer blends investigation is significant because of the broad applications in automotive, aerospace, electrical appliances, etc. In this study ternary polymer blends of polypropylene (PP)/polystyrene (PS)/high-density polyethylene (HDPE) were prepared which bear superior properties appropriate for light weight automobile applications. The mechanical, thermal and morphological properties of these mixes were analyzed which promotes the application areas to which it is suitable for. PP can enhance the properties when used as a blend with other thermoplastics namely polystyrene and high-density polyethylene. The dispersed phase of minor components strengthens continuous phase by energy barring properties within the limitations. The mechanical and thermal properties of ternary blend is found to be higher than that of binary blends. The maximum value obtained for tensile strength, flexural strength and impact strength are 39.72 MPa, 49.47 MPa, 28.80 kJ/m2 which are higher than binary blend and raw polymer. The results exhibit a stronger prospect for these blends even without the addition of compatibilizer.
