Dato' Prof. Dr. kamarudin@unimap.edu.my Calcium carbonate Composites Dynamic vulcanization Ethylene propylene diene terpolymer Polypropylene Link to publisher homepage at http://www.pertanika.upm.edu.my In this study, dynamic vulcanization process was used to improve the thermal properties of calcium carbonate filled composites. The composites were prepared using a Z-blade mixer at 180°C and rotor speed 50rpm. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) techniques were used to analyze the thermal properties of the composites. The vulcanized and unvulcanized PP/EPDM composites were filled by CaCO3 at 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40%wt. Meanwhile, thermogravimetric analysis indicates that the total weight loss of PP/EPDM/CaCO3 composites decreased with increasing filler loading. Dynamic vulcanized composites have higher thermal stability, while the crystallinity of PP/EPDM/CaCO3 composites were increased as compared to unvulcanized composites. Therefore, the thermal properties were improved by the presence of dynamic vulcanization process. 2012-03-23T07:14:18Z 2012-03-23T07:14:18Z 2010-07 Article Pertanika Journal of Science and Technology, vol 18 (2), 2010, pages 393-400 0128-7680 http://www.pertanika.upm.edu.my/Pertanika%20ARCHIVES/JST/2010/JST%20Vol.%2018%20%282%29%20Jul.%202010%20.pdf http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/18416 en Universiti Putra Malaysia Press
