Reinforcing thermoplastic polymers with nanotubes or nanoplatelets to form
nanocomposites is a way to increase the usage of polymeric materials in engineering applications by
improving their mechanical properties. The contribution presents the results of research from basic
processing and mechanical properties of nanocomposites. Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) was
used as a matrix for experiments. The material LDPE was modified by Halloysite nanotubes (HNT)
with a mass share of 2, 4, 6 wt% of the matrix LDPE. Nanocomposites were filled with 5 wt%
Polyethylene grafted with maleic anhydride (PE-graft-MA) as a compatibility factor. The specimens
were prepared by injection molding and their selected mechanical properties were tested by static
tensile test, Charpy impact test and Shore hardness test.
