N2 - In this thesis the monotonic and dynamic mechanical deformation behaviour of polypropylenes, that are filled with 3.5 % by volume and 7 % by volume polyethylene-octene-elastomer, has been investigated. In addition, light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy have been performed on the two compounds for morphological study. Material parameters for elastic, hyperelastic and viscoelastic material laws were determined. Based on the experiments on the constituents (polypropylene and polyethylene octene-elastomer), micromechanics based simulations of the mechanical behaviour of the compounds have been carried out and compared with the experimental results.
