Improvement of Water Vapor Permeability in Polypropylene Composite Films by the Synergy of Carbon Nanotubes and β-Nucleating Agents

Improvement of Water Vapor Permeability in Polypropylene Composite Films by the Synergy of Carbon Nanotubes and β-Nucleating Agents

A notable application of polymeric nanocomposites is the design of water vapor permeable (WVP) membranes. “Breathable” membranes can be created by the incorporation of micro/nanofillers, such as CaCO<sub>3</sub>, that interrupt the continuity of the polymeric phase and when subjected to...
