Abstract
  • The linear rheology of PP-TiO2 composites was investigated as a function of the filler particle size. Small amounts (FI= 4.5%) of micron and nano-sized TiO2 spherical particles were added to the polymer by melt compounding. In spite of the low particle volume fractions and the weak polymer-filler interactions, relevant changes have been observed in the linear viscoelastic behaviour of the nanostructured formulations. Microstructural analyses performed through electron microscopy have shown a good degree of dispersion of micron-sized particles. Conversely, the presence of a relevant number of TiO2 nanoparticle clusters has been detected for the nanocomposite. The structure of these aggregates seems to be strongly responsible for the rheological behaviour of these last materials in comparison with microstructured ones. Relevant similarities between the viscoelastic properties of nanocomposite and the flow feature of many soft glassy materials have been noticed, and a simple physical picture has been proposed in order to interpret the rheological response of studied nanocomposites.
