In this research programme organoclay clay Cloisite 30B (C 30B) and Multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were successfully blended with the biopolymer Chitosan (CS). The polymer nanocomposites were characterised by various techniques like Fourier Transmission Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). From the results it was found that intercalation or nearly exfoliation has been occurred between the polymer and the clay. Electrical conductivity was also measured by Four probe method and the conductivity value of the polymer nanocomposite shows encouraging results.
