Several blends have been developed using PP with other polymers including PET for different purposes, and many of them are part of important industries. PET is a polar, aromatic polymer, whereas PP is non-polar, semi-crystalline material with low thermal stability. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polypropylene (PP) are widely used materials for engineering applications and nearly 65 and 35 million tons are produced annually, respectively. In addition, this method can also be used for the large-scale production of such materials used in high-temperature environments. There was an extraordinary decrease in weight loss at elevated temperature for the nanocomposites in TGA analysis, which confirms the role of IF-WS 2 on thermal stability versus plain nanocomposites. In this work, the tensile strength of the PP/PET matrix with 1% IF-WS 2 increased by 31.8%, and the thermal stability of the sample PP/PET matrix with 2% increased by 18 ☌.
As-prepared blend nanocomposites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic differential scanning (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Subsequently, IF-WS 2 nanoparticles were dispersed in PET and PP in different loadings to access impact and their dispersion behavior in polymer matrices. Nanofiller IF-WS 2 was produced by the rotary chemical vapor deposition (RCVD) method. Here we give an account of a facile approach for the bulk production of a polyethylene terephthalate (PET)/polypropylene (PP)-based nanocomposite blend with Inorganic Fullerene Tungsten Sulfide (IF-WS 2) nanofiller using a single extruder. The industrial advancement of high-performance technologies directly depends on the thermo-mechanical properties of materials.
