摘要：
Polypropylene/nanometric zinc oxide (PP/nanoZnO) composites at 1 wt% nanoZnO content were prepared using melt blending method using a thermo Haake internal mixer. Three different types of zinc oxide (ZnO) with different morphologies were Used as fillers. Each composite was subjected to characterization analyses including, tensile testing, UV-vis spectroscopy and electron microscopy. The tensile strength, tensile modulus and elongation at break of the PP/nanoZnO composites were observed to be greatly enhanced despite the low filler content (1 wt%). All ZnO-reinforced composites exhibited superior UV absorption characteristic especially for composite specimens reinforced with ZnO morphology rich in nanorods.
