Effect of clay modification on the morphological,mechanical, and thermal properties of polyamide 6/polypropylene/montmorillonite nanocomposites

Polyamide 6/polypropylene (PA6/PP = 70/30 parts) blends containing 4 phr (parts per hundred resin) of organophilic montmorillonite (OMMT) were prepared by melt compounding. The sodium montmorillonite (Na‐MMT) was modified using three different types of alkyl ammonium salts, namely dodecylamine, 12‐aminolauric acid, and stearylamine. The effect of clay modification on the morphological and mechanical properties of PA6/PP nanocomposites was investigated using x‐ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), tensile, flexural, and impact tests. The thermal properties of PA6/PP nanocomposites were characterized using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and heat distortion temperature (HDT). XRD and TEM results indicated the formation of exfoliated structure for the PA6/PP nanocomposites prepared using stearylamine modified montmorillonite. On the other hand, a mixture of intercalated and exfoliated structures was found for the PA6/PP nanocomposites prepared using 12‐aminolauric acid and dodecylamine modified montmorillonite. Incorporation of OMMT increased the stiffness but decreased the ductility and toughness of PA6/PP blend. The PA6/PP nanocomposite containing stearylamine modified montmorillonite showed the highest tensile, flexural, and thermal properties among all nanocomposites. This could be attributed to better exfoliated structure in the PA6/PP nanocomposite containing stearylamine modified montmorillonite. The storage modulus and HDT of PA6/PP blend were increased significantly with the incorporation of both Na‐MMT and OMMT. The highest value in both storage modulus and HDT was found in the PA6/PP nanocomposite containing stearylamine modified montmorillonite due to its better exfoliated structure. POLYM.

Toughened nylon66/nylon6 ternary nanocomposites by elastomers

The elastomer toughening of PA66/PA6 nanocomposites prepared from the organic modified montmorillonite (OMMT) was examined as a means of balancing stiffness/strength versus toughness/ductility. Several different formulations varying in OMMT content were made by mixing of PA6 and OMMT as a master‐batch and then blending it with PA66 and different elastomers in a twin screw extruder. In this sequence, the OMMT layers were well exfoliated in the nylon alloy matrix. The introduction of silicate layers with PA6 induced the appearance of the γ crystal phase in the nanocomposites, which is unstable and seldom appears in PA66 at room temperature and it further affected the morphology and dispersion of rubber phase resulting in much smaller rubber particles. The incorporation of POE‐g‐MA particles toughened the nanocomposites markedly, but the tensile modulus and strength were both reduced. Conversely, the use of OMMT increased the modulus but decreased the fracture toughness. The nanocomposites exhibited balanced stiffness and toughness. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

New toughened polypropylene/organophilic montmorillonite nanocomposites

A new toughened polypropylene (PP)/organophilic montmorillonite (OMMT) nanocomposite was obtained by melt intercalation extrusion in a twin‐screw extruder without any compatibilizer. The nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation, melt flow rate (MFR) testing, mechanical properties measurement, melting and crystallization behaviors, and thermal stability determination. TEM images revealed the existence of intercalated OMMT layers dispersed throughout the PP matrix. A clear reduction in MFR was observed as the OMMT content increased. The yield strength, elongation at yield, and initial modulus of the PP/OMMT nanocomposites increased slightly as the result of the reinforcement of the OMMT nanofiller. The ultimate value of notched impact strength of the nanocomposites was over twofold that of neat PP after incorporation with 4 wt % OMMT; meanwhile, the heat deflection temperature values showed that the thermal stability increased a little. This is a new approach for preparation for the production of a toughened PP material with a high thermal stability and rigidity. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008     

Study on Polyurethane/MDI-Modified-Organic Montmorillonite Nanocomposites

Polyurethane (PU)/MDI-modified-organic montmorillonite (MOMMT) nanocomposites were prepared by in situ polymerization and intercalation technology. Compared with that of organic montmorillonite (OMMT), the interlayer spacing of MOMMT was increased from 1.50 nm to 2.05 nm because MDI was grafted on the surface of the silicate layers through reaction between MDI and -OH. The dispersion of silicate layers in PU/MOMMT nanocomposites was better than that of silicate layers in PU/OMMT nanocomposites. Compared with those of PU/OMMT nanocomposites, the tensile strength and tear strength of PU/MOMMT nanocomposites were increased, and the MOMMT showed a higher stiffened effect. Because of the improvement of the dispersion and interfacial interaction, the temperature of initial weight loss of PU/MOMMT nanocomposites was higher than that of PU/OMMT nanocomposites, so PU/MOMMT nanocomposites had better thermal stability.
