The processing of microcomposites based on polypropylene and two thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers in injection molding, sheet extrusion, and extrusion blow molding

This work is concerned with the processing of pellets of polypropylene (PP) containing pregenerated microfibrils of thermotropic liquid crystal polymers (TLCPs), referred to as microcomposites. The processing methods used are injection molding, sheet extrusion, and extrusion blow molding. The TLCPs...
