Effects of MAPE and EB irradiation techniques on the mechanical properties of crosslinked rubber toughened nanocomposites

Improving the mechanical properties of high density polyethylene (HDPE)/ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) matrix is the main target of developing HDPE/EPDM filled organophilic montmorillonite (OMMT). Both HDPE/EPDM matrix and HDPE/EPDM filled OMMT were first prepared via intercalation techniqu...
