Abstract

The effect of the reduced graphene oxide and the Poly-Ethylene Oxide on the viscoelastic properties of HDPE and PP are analyzed. The results of the dynamic viscosity are very similar in all cases. Using percentages of rGO of 0.1% with 2% of PEO, obtained values of elastic modulus for composite are four times than that of neat HDPE and three times than neat PP modulus. With 0.5% of rGO in both composites, maintaining the same percentage of PEO, the elastic module obtained is three times larger than those for two neat polyolefins.
