Journal Article
Salehiyan, R., Song, H. Y., Choi, W. J., & Hyun, K. (2015). Characterization of Effects of Silica Nanoparticles on (80/20) PP/PS Blends via Nonlinear Rheological Properties from Fourier Transform Rheology. Macromolecules, 48(13), 4669-4679. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.macromol.5b00679

Effects of silica nanoparticles with different natures (hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity) on (80/20) PP/PS blends were investigated via linear and nonlinear rheological properties. The hydrophilic silica nanoparticle was fumed silica OX50 while the...
