Influence of filler size on impact properties for polypropylene (PP)/elastomer/filler ternary composites was investigated. Calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) particles with a diameter in the range from 120 to 1200 nm were used as a filler and polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene-butene)-block-polystyrene triblo...
