“…23 Therefore, significant work is still needed to improve the scratch resistance of TPOs to reduce scratch visibility. The recent work of Wei et al showed that the rigid-rigid polymer toughening concept 24 can improve the scratch resistance of TPOs. The fundamental reasons for achieving improved scratch resistance in TPOs are discussed in the corresponding literature indicated above.…”

“…Different elastomers, such as ethylene–propylene–diene monomer (EPDM), ethylene‐propylene rubber (EPR), styrene‐butadiene‐styrene (SBS), styrene–ethylene–butadiene–styrene (SEBS), polyolefin elastomer (POE), Noryl, and polyurethane, have been incorporated in polypropylene (PP) to enhance the toughening characteristics of blends. Rubber toughening is a function of the interparticle distance of the rubber phase (dispersed phase), attributed to the mixing process and the viscosity ratio of constituent polymers, strain rate of the test, temperature of the experiment, and interfacial adhesion between elastomer and matrix . Sometimes, in order to improve the toughening characteristics of PP/elastomer blends, β‐nucleating agents are also incorporated in conjugation with the elastomer .…”

The approach of this paper is to examine the mechanical responses of polypropylene (PP)/γ‐irradiated ethylene acrylic elastomer blends and subsequently compare them with the PP/unirradiated ethylene acrylic elastomer blends. Thorough correlations were drawn between the mechanical characteristics of blends and their morphological, thermal, thermomechanical, and fractured surface morphological aspects. The idea of carrying out γ‐irradiation was to introduce crosslinking points in the elastomer phase. For better understanding, correlations between the impact test results and the fractured surface morphologies were analyzed. The limited tensile properties of PP/γ‐irradiated elastomer blends were attributed not only to the poor interfacial adhesion, obtained by fitting with several theoretical mechanical models, but also to the substantially higher elastomer particle size in the blends than in the PP/unirradiated elastomer blends. The higher loss modulus and tan δ values for PP/unirradiated elastomer blends along with the attainment of much smaller particles of elastomers were responsible for the phenomenal increase in impact properties, which was actually attributed to the formation of crazes inside the dispersed phase during applied impact stress. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…A delicate balance among modulus, yield/brittle stress, yield/brittle strain, and toughness has to be reached to achieve the system with all improved toughness, strength, and modulus. Consequently, based on the concept “rigid–rigid polymer toughening,”6 it is possible to improve both modulus and toughness of PP by blending with a rigid polymer.…”

This work was aimed to counteract the effect of ethylene-a-olefin copolymers (POE) by reinforcing the polypropylene (PP)/POE blends with high density polyethylene (HDPE) particles and, thus, achieved a balance between toughness and strength for the PP/POE/ HDPE blends. The results showed that addition of HDPE resulted in an increasing wide stress plateau and more ductile fracture behavior. With the increase of HDPE content, the elongation at break of the blends increased rapidly without obvious decrease of yield strength and Young's modulus, and the notched izod impact strength of the blends can reach as high as 63 kJ/m 2 at 20 wt % HDPE loading. The storage modulus of PP blends increased and the glass transition temperature of each component of the blends shifted close to each other when HDPE was added. The crystallization of HDPE phase led to an increase of the total crystallinity of the blend. With increasing HDPE content, the dispersed POE particle size was obviously decreased, and the interparticle distance was effectively reduced and the blend rearranged into much more and obvious core-shell structure. The fracture surface also changed from irregular striation to the regularly distant striations, displaying much obvious character of tough fracture.
