Polypropylene was melt blended in a single screw extruder with thermo tropic Vectra B-950 liquid crystalline polymer (copolyester amide) in different proportions in presence of 2% of EAA ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer (based on PP) as a compatibilizer. The mechanical properties of such compatibilized blends were evaluated and compared in respect of their Young's Modulii, Ultimate tensile strength, percent elongation at break, and toughness to those of Pure PP. The Morphology was studied by using a polarizing light microscope (PLM) and Scanning electron microscope (SEM). The Thermal characterization of these blends were carried out by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC).The mechanical properties under dynamic conditions of such compatibilized blends and pure PP were studied by dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). Mechanical analysis (Tensile properties) of the compatibilized blends displayed improvements in Modulii and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of PP matrix with the incorporation of 2-10% of LCP incorporation. The development of fine fibrillar morphology in the compatibilized PP/LCP blends had large influence on the mechanical properties. Differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) studies indicated no remarkable changes in the crystalline melting temperature of the blends with respect to that of Pure PP. However, an increase in the softening range of the blends over that of PP was observed. (C) 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 111: 2345-2352, 2009
