Nano-sized silica was pre-grafted with poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA) by solution free-radical polymerization. When these grafted silica particles were melt compounded with polypropylene (PP), reactive compatibilization effect was perceived due to the chemical bonding between the PGMA and amine functionalized PP, which led to a significant increase of tensile strength and notch impact strength of PP at rather low filler content. Accordingly, compatibility of each kind of the functionalized PP with grafted SiO2 was evaluated through investigating the mechanical properties, crystallization behavior and rheological performance of the composites. The results show that the reactive compatibilization is capable of providing stronger interfacial adhesion.

A series of different contents of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA)-grafted natural rubber (GNR) copolymers were fabricated via green bulk melt-grafting reactions, and super-tough bio-based poly (lactic acid) (PLA)/GNR thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) were achieved by in-situ dynamic vulcanization. Increasing the graft yield, gel fraction, and crosslinking density of GNR vulcanizates effectively improved the ductility of the PLA/GNR TPVs, while prolonging the dynamic vulcanization time and increasing the GMA graft yield led to a notable enhancement in the impact toughness of the PLA/GNR TPVs. PLA/30 wt % GNR TPVs exhibited a significantly increased elongation (410%) and notched impact strength (73.2 kJ/m2), which were 40 and 15 times higher than those of the PLA/30 wt % NR TPVs, respectively. The new bio-based PLA/GNR TPVs offer promise as replacements for petroleum-based polymers in the automotive, 3D printing, and packaging fields.
