This research explores the custom-made design of nanomaterial designs to improve the mechanical and thermal properties of polypropylene (PP) framework nanocomposites. Functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs) and polyvinylpyrrolidone-modified nano-silica (PVP-SiO2) were deliberately consolidated into the PP matrix, illustrating improved scattering and interaction at the atomic level. Morphological examination uncovered a uniform dissemination of nanofillers, driving to upgrade mechanical properties. Tensile tests illustrated a dynamic increment in Young’s Modulus and Tensile Strength with higher concentrations of nanofillers, especially in definitions NC3 and NC4. Thermal analysis, counting differential checking calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), demonstrated hoisted glass move temperatures and upgraded warm solidness. Comparative execution with related works highlighted the special commitments of this ponder, emphasizing green activities, sustainability, and progressions in multifunctionality. The nanocomposites display promising results, with NC3 appearing with a Young’s Modulus of 2.5 GPa and Tensile Strength of 35 MPa, whereas NC4 accomplished a Young’s Modulus of 3.0 GPa and Tensile Quality of 40 MPa. These discoveries emphasize the potential of tailored nanomaterial models for creating high-performance and environmentally capable polymer network nanocomposites.
