Micromechanics of Thermoelastic Behavior of Polypropylene/Calcite (Modified with Triton X-100) Nanocomposites
P. Pavani [2] | A. Chennakesava Reddy [30]
Abstract: The present work was to estimate thermoelastic behavior of polypropylene/calcite nanoparticulate composites. The calcite nanoparticulates were modified with Triton X-100. The RVE models were used to analyze thermo-elastic behavior. The stiffness of polypropylene/calcite nanoparticulate composites decreased with the increase of temperature.
