▎ 摘　　要

NOVELTY - Container comprises composite material. The composite material comprises a combination of thermoplastic resin and polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride (PPgMA) mixed with one another, a multiple of carbon particles mixed in the combination, the multiple of carbon particles including a first region having a relatively low concentration of carbon particles per unit volume, and a second region having a relatively high concentration of carbon particles per unit volume, where at least some of the carbon particles have exposed carbon surfaces with carbon atoms bonded to molecular sites on adjacent PPgMA molecules, the at least some carbon particles oxidized with one or more oxygen-containing groups, and a multiple of pores formed in at least some of the mixed carbon particles, the thermoplastic resin. USE - Container used in constructing and/or forming buildings, bridges, structures (e.g., boat hulls and swimming pool panels), racing car bodies, shower stalls, bathtubs, storage tanks, imitation granite, cultured marble sinks and countertops. ADVANTAGE - The container is produced from two or more constituent materials having dis similar chemical and/or physical properties. Composite materials tend to be less expensive, lighter, stronger, and/or more durable than common materials or their constituent (e.g., formative) materials. Certain composite materials may benefit from uniformly incorporating carbon particles throughout various blends. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Container comprises composite material. The composite material comprises a combination of thermoplastic resin and polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride (PPgMA) mixed with one another, a multiple of carbon particles mixed in the combination, the multiple of carbon particles including a first region having a relatively low concentration of carbon particles per unit volume, and a second region having a relatively high concentration of carbon particles per unit volume, where at least some of the carbon particles have exposed carbon surfaces with carbon atoms bonded to molecular sites on adjacent PPgMA molecules, the at least some carbon particles oxidized with one or more oxygen-containing groups, and a multiple of pores formed in at least some of the mixed carbon particles, the thermoplastic resin, and the PPgMA, at least some of the pores configured to be infiltrated by the PPgMA, where oxidation of the carbon atoms is configured to increase chemical bonding between at least some of the PPgMA with adjacent carbon atoms.
