Nucleation of the β-polymorph in Composites of Poly(propylene) and Graphene Nanoplatelets

The effects of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) on the nucleation of the &#946;-polymorph of polypropylene (PP) were studied when melt-mixed at loadings of 0.1&#8211;5 wt % using a laboratory scale twin-screw (conical) extruder and a twin-screw (parallel) extruder with <i>L/D</i> =...
