Abstract The effects of compounds containing oxazoline groups and the presence of maleic anhydridegrafted polypropylene (PP-g-MAH) on the spectral, morphological, and tensile properties of
polypropylene (PP)/liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) blends were investigated. A wholly aromatic
LCP having a low melting point which was copolyester, namely AL-7000 have been used, because
thermal decomposition of PP and compatibilizer must be prevented.Compression molding was
selected as the molding method because it allows molding with a small amount of sample. The
binary blends of PP and LCP showed a degradation of tensile properties compared to pure PP.
However, the addition More >
