Modification Methods—Dry Processing

If the matrix resin contains processing molding additives, such as a plasticizer, stabilizer, lubricant, and so forth, the different compatibilities among these additives, between additives and resin, and between the filler and additives, make the interfacial area of the filler and the matrix and the interfacial distribution complicated, and the performance of the composite material will be influenced by many factors. 

3 Modification of Calcium Carbonate Whiskers by a Titanate Coupling Agent 

Dry processing is applied more often in industrial production. We adopt dry processing to modify calcium carbonate whiskers and investigate the Influence of a titanate coupling agent on the surface properties of the whiskers.
