ABSTRACT The high shrinkage and the low impact strength severely limit the applications of the isotactic polypropylene (iPP). In this article, we studied the shrinkage, microstructure, and mechanical properties of the composites consisted of iPP, short glass fiber (GF), maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MPP), maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene/polyolefin elastomer (MPPPOE) or composite toughening agents (CTAs). The results show that the shrinkage of the composite with 40% GF reduces to 0.0754% (24 h) and 0.0893(48 h), respectively, under room temperature, which is far lower than the shrinkage [1.782% (24 h) and 1.821% (48 h)] of the pure iPP. For the composite of PP/GF/MPPPOE/CTAs (55/30/5/10), the tensile strength increases to 65.53 MPa (33.8 MPa for pure iPP), the tensile modulus is 1445 MPa which is 136% higher than pure iPP, and the izod impact strength reaches 22.72 kJ/m2 (only 5.28 kJ/m2 for pure iPP). Not only the scale stability of iPP is remarkably improved, but also the comprehensive mechanical properties are enhanced drastically. This work may generate potential opportunities for iPP in those applications demanding high scale stability. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2017, 134, 44275.
