Abstract
Polypropylene/ waste tyre dust/ short glass fibre (PP/WTD/SGF) composites were melt-mixed in an internal mixer at 180 oC and 50 rpm rotor speed. Four series of composites with various compositions were prepared using WTD of 250-500 μm and at different 5, 10, 15 and 20 php SGF loading. Characterization was done to determine the properties of the composites and thus to study the effects of SGF loading, the incorporation of silane coupling agent, γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (γ-APS) and dynamic vulcanization (DV), the hybridization of SGF with carbon black (CB) and silica on processing characteristics, mechanical properties, morphology, swelling resistance and thermal properties of the composites.
