Abstract
The effects of dry blending by high-speed mixing and melt blending in an extruder on the mechanical and morphological properties of LDPE composites filled with calcium carbonate or fly ash were investigated. Mechanical properties were assessed through their tensile, flexural, impact and hardness properties. Dispersion of filler and interfacial filler-polymer adhesion were studied by scanning electron microscopy and the crystallinity level of LDPE in the composites analysed by X-ray diffraction. 22 refs.
