Abstract
The aging effect aging in water at the temperature of 100±2°C on selected mechanical properties of polypropylene with organic fillers (hemp chaff, a mixture of oak, birch and maple leaves) was investigated. A significant influence of the aging process on the impact strength and elongation at break was observed. The degradation processes were also visible on the surface of the samples.
