Mechanical properties of recycled PP reinforced with microcrystalline cellulose: effect of MAPP content

The effect of different amounts of maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAPP) coupling agent (2, 3 and 5 wt%) on mechanical properties of recycled polypropylene/microcrystalline cellulose (rPP/MCC) composites was determined. 4 wt% of MCC was compounded with rPP via melt mixing method followed by...
