The effects of stearic acid treated dolomite (Sa-Dol) on the mechanical, morphological and thermal properties of polypropylene (PP) composite were studied. Prior treatment, raw dolomite was ground in planetar y mill using different grinding time to obtain the submicron size (under 10μm). Particle si...
