Focusing on the concept of interphase design, this handbook presents 14 contributions arranged to cover the material as if one were formulating individual ingredients into a polypropylene composite. Topics include modifications of polypropylene resins and microstructure by addition of additives and postreactor processing; the current state of mineral-filled and glass-fiber reinforcement technology; talc-filled polypropylene; the attributes of mica reinforcement; glass-fiber technology; state-of-the-art reactive extrusion and compounding via twin screw equipment; the concept of interphase design; mega-coupled-type chemical coupling; and long-term creep-fatigue properties for glass-fiber-reinforced polypropylene composites. Of likely use to research scientists and technical service engineers.
