Flammability Properties of Polymer−Layered-Silicate Nanocomposites. Polypropylene and Polystyrene Nanocomposites
Our continuing study of the mechanism of flammability reduction of polymer−layered-silicate nanocomposites has yielded results for polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride and polys...
Polymer Layered Silicate Nanocomposites
Abstract Polymer nanocomposites with layered silicates as the inorganic phase (reinforcement) are discussed. The materials design and synthesis rely on the ability of layered si...
Polymer-layered silicate nanocomposites: Synthesis, properties and applications
Polymer nanocomposites, especially polymer-layered silicate (PLS) nanocomposites, represent a radical alternative to conventionally (macroscopically) filled polymers. Because of...
Structure and thermal/mechanical properties of poly(l-lactide)-clay blend
Organophilic montmorillonite was obtained by the reaction of montmorillonite (MON) and distearyldimethylammonium chloride (DSAC). The modified clay and poly(l-lactide), (PLLA), ...
PA-6 clay nanocomposite hybrid as char forming agent in intumescent formulations
This work deals with new flame retardant (FR) intumescent formulations for ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers (EVA) using charring polymers polyamide-6 (PA-6) and polyamide-6 cla...
