Nanocomposites of Polyethylene-Closite 20A: Preparation and Characteristics
Abstract: Low-density polyethylene/closite 20A nanocomposites with different organoclay contents were made in the current study by a melt mixing technique with two different compatibilizers of varying contents: low molecular weight oxidized polyethylene and low molecular weight trimethoxysilyl modified polybutadiene. The inclusion of compatibilizers and concentrations of organoclay were analyzed in relation to the mechanical and thermal properties of the nanocomposites. The dispersibility of the silicate clay in the nanocomposites was investigated …
