Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Rheological and mechanical properties (tensile and impact properties) as well as the mechanical profiles of ternary isotactic polypropylene/silica/elastomer (iPP/SiO/m-EPR metallocene catalyzed ethylene-propylene rubber) composites were investigated and discussed. The effects of two metallocene ethylene-propylene-based elastomers (m-EPR) differing in molecular weight/viscosity and their content on iPP/silica composites with different silica types differing in size (nano- vs. micro-) and surface properties (untreated vs. treated) were investigated. The two m-EPR elastomers were added to iPP/SiO 96/4 composites as possible impact modifier and compatibilizer at the same time in 5, 10, 15, and 20 vol% per hundred volume parts of composites. The effects of different silica fillers and two m-EPR rubbers were discussed within the context of structure-morphology-mechanical property relationships of these iPP/SiO/m-EPR composites. Tensile and impact strength properties were mainly influenced by combined competetive effects of stiff filler and tough m-EPR elastomer so sinergistic effect was also observed. The ductility of these composites was affected additionally by spherulite size of the iPP matrix due to the difference in nucleation abilities of silica fillers enabled by prevailing separated morphology observed in iPP/SiO/m-EPR composites.
