Comparison of mechanical and thermal properties of polyamide-66/rubber/ fiber alloy composites

Abstract

This study compared and evaluated the mechanical and thermal properties of three-phase blends of polyamide-66. A series of polyamide- 66/polymer blends were prepared using an extrusion and injection process and the blending polymers were rubber, TPU, polyester block polyamide and ionomer. The polymer contents was 10-30 %. The blending polymers were used to improve the moisture absorbance and elastic recovery of polyamide-66. The coupling agent impregnated in the glass fiber was melt blended to increase the miscibility of each composition.
