Abstract

The effects of nano-MH loading on mechanical and thermal properties of EVA/LDPE/nano-MH at different ultrasonic frequency were studied. The best formulation was selected based on the distribution of nano-MH loading and ultrasonic frequency. A range of nano-MH loading which is from 0 pph to maximum of 20 pph with ultrasonic extrusion 0 kHz, 50 kHz and 100 kHz frequencies have been used in order to improve the mechanical and thermal properties as well as flame retardancy ability. It was found that, 10 pph of nano loading with 100 kHz ultrasonic assisted has greater mechanical properties compared to the nanocomposite without ultrasonication. Further increased of nano-MH loading, decreased the mechanical properties.
