Abstract EN
Ethylene polymerization was done to form polyethylene nano-composite with nanoaluminum nitride using zirconocene catalysts.
Results show that the catalytic activity is maximum at a filler loading of 15 mg nanoaluminum nitride.
Differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results show that percentage crystallinity was also marginally higher at this amount of filler.
Thermal behavior of polyethylene nanocomposites (0, 15, 30, and 45) mg was studied by DSC and thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA).
Morphology of the component with 15 mg aluminium nitride is more fibrous as compared to 0 mg aluminium nitride and higher filler loading as shown by SEM images.
In order to understand combustibility behavior, tests were performed on microcalorimeter.
Its results showed decrease in combustibility in polyethylene nanocomposites as the filler loading increases.
