Analysis of thermal stability of polymer nanocomposites based on polypropylene

  • Materials Science and Corrosion Protection
  • Published:
Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

Data are presented for thermal and thermal-oxidation destruction of polypropylene nanocomposites based on organically modified layered aluminosilicate, nanodispersed calcium carbonate, and carbon nanotubes. The effect is revealed of structural characteristics of nanodispersed additives on the change in thermal stability of polypropylene nanocomposites.
