  • Crystalline polyolefin blend comprising polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane nanoparticles
    Publication number: 20100249257
    Abstract: A crystalline polyolefin blend comprising dispersed polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) nanoparticles has improved packing of chains, high draw-down ratios, as well as improved tensile and yield strength. The blend is made by melt blending the polyolefin with the POSS in the presence of a sorbitol nucleating agent and cooling the mixture so that the nucleating agent serves as a template for the in-situ self assembly of dispersed POSS nanoparticles and the formation of very small crystalline polyolefin sites.
