Description
Summary:New composite materials based on isotactic PP and fullerene were prepared via in situ polymerization with the use of an isospecific metallocene catalytic system. The stress-strain properties, thermophysical characteristics, and reactivities of composites in reactions of high-temperature decomposition, oxidation, and chemiluminescence were studied. The appreciable effect of fullerene on the thermal oxidation and crystallization behavior of composites (an increase in the crystallization temperature by 10 K) was found. It was shown that the protective inhibitory effect of fullerene in PP oxidation reactions is due to the interaction of fullerene nanoparticles with peroxy macroradicals.
