Morphology and Rheological Behaviour of PMMA/PS/PP Ternary Blends and Their Layerd Silicate Nanocomposites

Polymer blending is among successful method of producing new polymers with desirable properties. Recently, ternary blends, in particular, those with core-shell type morphologyhave received great attention. Improvements in properties can often be carried out with inclusion of nanofillers. In general,individual and homogeneous dispersion of nanofillers and a strong interaction between polymer matrix and nanofillers would lead to an efficient interfacial load transfer and significant mechanical property improvements [1, 2].
