Polypropylene nanocomposites are materials that show great potential in a variety of applications. By incorporating nanoclay the performance and properties of the PP can be drastically altered. To make nanocomposites economically viable, their production must use common processing equipment, and additional processing steps should be avoided. In this work the relationship between processing and performance is reviewed for PP-nanoclay injected pieces.
