Nanoparticle-Reinforced Polypropylene Masterbatch Produced in Iran
‘Shamim Polymer Kosar’ company managed to make the product that is a nanoparticle-reinforced polypropylene matrix masterbatch in which the incorporated nanoparticles serve as filler, contributing to an increase in the mechanical properties.
The addition of nanoparticles to the polymer has led to enhanced mechanical properties, including flexural and tensile strengths.
The polymer can be used in manufacturing automotive components like bumpers.
In a relevant development in March, an Iranian knowledge-based company had also introduced a new nanotechnology-based insulator to the automobile industry using than can protect cars against different kinds of physical and chemical pressures.
The bottom sides of cars are exposed to all kinds of physical and chemical pressures such as splashing water, sand and gravel, mud, and stroke and friction, and if it is not protected, it will quickly be corroded and destroyed.
For that, an Iranian manufacturing and industrial knowledge-based company has produced a new insulator for the bottom of cars using nano technology, which protects the covering of the cars against heat, corrosion, humidity and other kinds of environmental hits.
High strength, color acceptability and excellent adhesion to all types of surfaces, non-settling, favorable fluidity, uniformity and non-staining are among the properties of the product, according to the news service of the Iranian Vice presidency for Science and technology.
