BACKGROUND: Ethylene–(vinyl alcohol) (EVOH) copolymer/organo‐modified montmorillonite (OMMT) composites were investigated. Composites with two different percentages by weight of OMMT were prepared using a melt‐extrusion procedure in a twin‐screw extruder, using EVOH as matrix. Films made of EVOH and EVOH/OMMT composites were prepared in a cast‐film extrusion line. RESULTS: The mechanical properties were evaluated by tensile tests and the fracture behaviour was analysed using the essential‐work‐of‐fracture (EWF) method. Fracture characterization was carried out for the two main processing directions: melt flow direction and transverse direction. Fractographic observations were made using scanning electron microscopy. CONCLUSION: The tensile test results indicated good compatibility between EVOH and OMMT. In addition, the fracture tests showed the influence of the clay particle arrangement on the fracture behaviour, showing an increase in the specific essential work of fracture, we, which was attributed to the EVOH–OMMT interaction. The plastic term, βwp, showed different trends depending on the test direction, explained by the size of the plastic zone and the restrictions to the EVOH plastic flow promoted by the clay particles. In this sense, the EWF method is shown to be a very useful tool for the analysis of structure–property relationships in polymer–organo‐clay composites.

Nanocomposite of thermoplastic elastomer ethylene‐octene copolymer/maleated ethylene‐octene (POE/POE‐g‐MAH) with organo‐montmorillonite (OMMT, 11 wt %) as masterbatch have been obtained by melt blending and it has been characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Flame retardant POE/POE‐g‐MAH/OMMT/ammonium polyphosphate‐pentaerythritol (APP‐PER) (an intumescent flame retardant with 75 wt % ammonium polyphosphate and 25 wt % pentaerythritol) composites were prepared by using melting processing to study their structures, flame‐retardancy, thermal, and mechanical properties. TEM showed exfoliated structures throughout POE/POE‐g‐MAH/OMMT masterbatch and POE/POE‐g‐MAH/OMMT/APP‐PER nanocomposites. Synergistic effect was observed between OMMT and APP‐PER resulting in significant improvements on thermal stability, flame‐retardancy and mechanical properties in the POE/POE‐g‐MAH/OMMT/APP‐PER nanocomposites. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Polylactic acid (PLA)/organo‐montmorillonite (OMMT) nanocomposites toughened with thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) were prepared by melt‐compounding on a novel vane extruder (VE), which generates global dynamic elongational flow. In this work, the mechanical properties of the PLA/TPU/OMMT nanocomposites were evaluated by tensile, flexural, and tensile tests. The wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy results show that PLA/TPU/OMMT nanocomposites had clear intercalation and/or exfoliation structures. Moreover, the particles morphology of nanocomposites with the addition of TPU was investigated using high‐resolution scanning electronic microscopy. The results indicate that the spherical TPU particles dispersed in the PLA matrix, and the uniformity decreased with increasing TPU content (≤30%). Interestingly, there existed abundant filaments among amount of TPU droplets in composites with 30 and 40 wt% TPU. Furthermore, the thermal properties of the nanocomposites were examined with differential scanning calorimeter and dynamic mechanical analysis. The elongation at break and impact strength of the PLA/OMMT nanocomposites were increased significantly after addition of TPU. Specially, Elongation at break increased by 30 times, and notched impact strength improved 15 times when TPU loading was 40 wt%, compared with the neat PLA. Overall, the modified PLA nanocomposites can have greater application as a biodegradable material with enhanced mechanical properties. POLYM. ENG.

Epoxy composites filled with glass fiber and organo‐montmorillonite (OMMT) were prepared by the hand lay‐up method. The flexural properties of the epoxy/glass fiber/OMMT composites were characterized by a three‐point bending test. The flexural modulus and strength of epoxy/glass fiber were increased significantly in the presence of OMMT. The optimum loading of OMMT in the epoxy/glass fiber composites was attained at 3 wt%, where the improvement in flexural modulus and strength was approximately 66 and 95%, respectively. The fractured surface morphology of the epoxy/glass fiber/OMMT composites was investigated using field emission scanning electron microscopy. It was found that OMMT adheres on the epoxy/glass fiber interface, and this is also supported by evidence from energy dispersive X‐ray analysis. Copyright © 2007 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

In this study, micronized organo‐montmorillonite (OMMT) suspension was prepared with sodium‐montmorillonite (Na‐MMT), didecyl dimethyl ammonium chloride, and dispersant polyethylene glycol 1000 by a ball‐milling process. Then, wood flours (WFs) were impregnated with prepared OMMT suspension at a concentration of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, or 4.0%. WFs were characterized by X‐ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The hygroscopicity of WF was investigated by a vapor adsorption method. WFs were, respectively, blended with poly (lactic acid) (PLA) to produce WF/PLA composites. Thereafter, physical, mechanical, and thermal properties of the composites were tested. The results showed that a great amount of OMMT attached on the surface of WF, partly penetrating into the microstructure of WF. Owing to the hydrophobicity of OMMT, the vapor adsorption of OMMT‐modified WF decreased. The composite which was produced by WF treated with 0.5% OMMT suspension, showing an increment in the physical, mechanical, and thermal properties. However, OMMT should not be overloaded. Otherwise, the accumulation of OMMT might cause poor interfacial adhesion between WF and PLA matrix. POLYM. COMPOS., 36:731–738, 2015. © 2014 Society of Plastics Engineers 相似文献

Poly(lactic acid)/organo‐montmorillonite (PLA/OMMT) nanocomposites toughened with maleated styrene‐ethylene/butylene‐styrene (SEBS‐g‐MAH) were prepared by melt‐compounding using co‐rotating twin‐screw extruder followed by injection molding. The dispersibility and intercalation/exfoliation of OMMT in PLA was characterized using X‐ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The mechanical properties of the PLA nanocomposites was investigated by tensile and Izod impact tests. Thermogravimetric analyzer and differential scanning calorimeter were used to study the thermal behaviors of the nanocomposite. The homogenous dispersion of the OMMT silicate layers and SEBS‐g‐MAH encapsulated OMMT layered silicate can be observed from TEM. Impact strength and elongation at break of the PLA nanocomposites was enhanced significantly by the addition of SEBS‐g‐MAH. Thermal stability of the PLA/OMMT nanocomposites was improved in the presence of SEBS‐g‐MAH. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012 相似文献

In this research, wood flour (WF) was modified using sodium–montmorillonite (Na‐MMT) at four different concentrations (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0 wt%, respectively) and didecyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (DDAC) in a two‐step process to form organo‐montmorillonite (OMMT) inside the WF or attached to the WF surface. The thus‐modified WF was then mixed with poly(lactic acid) (PLA) to produce WF/PLA composites. The thermal stability of these composites with respect to their resistance against both thermal deformation and thermal decomposition was characterized by stress relaxation, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. Besides, the activation energies for thermal decomposition of the composites were calculated. The results showed the following: (1) The modification of WF by OMMT improved the resistance against thermal deformation of the composites at appropriate OMMT loadings (lower than 1 wt% in this study). However, after introducing excessive OMMT, the enhancements in thermal stability diminished. Composite containing WF modified by 0.5 wt% of OMMT showed the optimal thermal deformation stability in this study, reflected in the highest values of thermal properties such as the glass transition temperature, melting temperature, crystallization temperature, and slowest stress relaxation rate. (2) OMMT showed a negative effect on the resistance against thermal decomposition. Namely, OMMT accelerated the thermal decomposition of the composites, probably by the easier degradation of the organic surfactant used for the WF modification. However, this behavior might be favorable for achieving fire retardancy. POLYM. COMPOS., 37:1971–1977, 2016. © 2015 Society of Plastics Engineers 相似文献

Two types of SBS/OMMT composites are prepared by melt blending using a twin‐screw extruder. An X‐ray diffractometer indicates that polymer chains have intercalated into the gallery of the clay. It is shown in TEM photos that the thickness of the layer aggregate in the SBS1301 matrix is approximately 200 Å, but in the SBS4402 matrix the size of the filler particle is in micrometers. When SBS1301 is intermingled into SBS4402/OMMT, the particle size is reduced obviously. The tensile strength and elongation at break of the nanocomposite, SBS1301/OMMT, increase with the addition of OMMT; and when addition is 5phr, they achieve maximum. A small content of OMMT (less than 5phr) can prevent the deterioration of the mechanical properties of the SBS1301/MMT. In addition, a small content of SBS4402 (less than 20 wt %) can improve the mechanical properties of the SBS1301/OMMT composites. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

N,N‐Di(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐N‐dodecyl‐N‐methyl ammonium chloride was used as intercalation agent to treat Na+‐montmorillonite and form a type of organic montmorillonite (OMMT). Hyperbranched OMMT (HOMMT) was prepared by condensation reaction between OMMT and the monomer we synthesized. It was then used in the preparation of high‐temperature vulcanizated silicone rubber (HTV‐SR)/HOMMT nanocomposite. Different types of HTV‐SR/HOMMT nanocomposites were prepared with different amounts of HOMMT and compared with the composites directly incorporated with OMMT. Tensile properties such as tensile strength, elongation at break, permanent distortion, and shore A hardness were researched and compared. A combination of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, wide angle X‐ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy studies showed that HTV‐SR/HOMMT composites were on the nanometer scale, and the structure of HTV‐SR was not interfered by the presence of HOMMT. Results showed that the tensile properties of HTV‐SR/HOMMT systems were better than that of the HTV‐SR/HOMMT and HTV‐SR. This was probably due to the surface effect of the exfoliated silicate layers and anchor effect of HOMMT in the SR matrix. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2009 相似文献

An approach to the development of high impact polystyrene (HIPS) based on organic montmorillonite (OMMT) and carbon fiber (CF) reinforcement was reported in this article. OMMT were used to improve the interface compatibility and toughness of CF/HIPS composites. HIPS/OMMT/CF composites were prepared by melt compounding, followed by injection molding. The composites were characterized by some techniques including X‐ray diffraction (XRD), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and mechanical testing. In comparison to unmodified system, the incorporation of OMMT can significantly enhance the mechanical properties of the HIPS/CF composites. The optimum weight ratio of OMMT : CF : HIPS in the composite is 1/5/100. Compare with HIPS, the tensile modulus, tensile strength, bending modulus and bending strength of OMMT/CF/HIPS composite increased by 81%, 138%, 26%, and 46%, respectively. Moreover, the impact strength of OMMT/CF/HIPS composites increased by 31%, compared with CF/HIPS composite. POLYM. COMPOS., 36:811–816, 2015. © 2014 Society of Plastics Engineers 相似文献

The essential work of fracture (EWF) approach was adopted to reveal the effect of nanofillers on the toughness of poly (?‐caprolactone) (PCL)/boehmite alumina (BA) nanocomposites. Synthetic BA particles with different surface treatments were dispersed into the PCL matrix by extrusion melt compounding. The morphology of the composites was studied by scanning electron microscopy. Differential scanning calorimetry and wide‐angle X‐ray scattering were used to detect changes in the crystalline structure of PCL. Also, mode I type EWF tests, dynamic mechanical analysis, and quasi‐static tensile tests were applied to study the effect of the BA nanofillers on the mechanical properties of the nanocomposites. BA was homogeneously dispersed and acted as heterogeneous crystallization nucleant and a nonreinforcing filler in PCL. The tensile modulus and yield strength slightly increased and the yield strain decreased with increasing BA content (up to 10 wt %). The effect of the BA surface treatment with octylsilane was negligible by contrast to that with alkylbenzene sulfonic acid (OS2). Like the tensile mechanical data, the essential and nonessential work of fracture parameters did not change significantly either. The improved PCL/BA adhesion in case of OS2 treatment excluded the usual EWF treatise. This was circumvented by energy partitioning between yielding and necking. The yielding‐related EWF decreased, whereas the nonessential EWF increased with BA content and with better interfacial adhesion. This was attributed to the effect of matrix/filler debonding. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci., 2013 相似文献

Nylon 66/polypropylene (PP) blends containing maleated polypropylene and organo‐montmorillonite (OMMT) have been prepared by melt compounding using a well‐dispersed master‐batch of nylon 6/OMMT nanocomposite as the source of OMMT. The effects of OMMT platelets on the compatibility and properties of the blends have been investigated. The blend morphology has been observed by the use of field emission scanning electron microscopy, showing a sharp decrease in domain size. The dispersion and location of OMMT have been investigated by X‐ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. A high‐density occupation of OMMT at the interface (i.e. Nylon‐g‐PP interphase region) is revealed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis of the extraction residue after the removal of nylon phase by formic acid. A significant gain in stiffness is realized with the use of OMMT while the toughness of the material is maintained. The possible mechanism of compatibilization also is discussed. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010 相似文献

The present work describes the synthesis and characterization of polyurethanamide/organo‐montmorillonite bio‐nanocomposites (OBNC) from Linseed oil‐a renewable resource. The aim of the work is (i) to widen the scope of application and improve the performance of vegetable oil based polymers, and (ii) to investigate the effect of introduction of modified clay on their structure, morphology, thermal stability, and coating properties. OBNC has been prepared by in situ polymerization of Linseed oil derived diol fattyamide and tolulylene‐2,4‐diisocyanate in the presence of different contents of OMMT (0.5–2.5 mass % in minimum amount of dimethylformamide) at room temperature. OBNC has been characterized by optical microscopy, FTIR, XRD, TEM, and TGA, which confirm the formation of OBNC. OBNC produced tough, scratch‐resistant, impact resistant, flexibility retentive coatings, which cure at room temperature with improved coating performance and thermal stability than virgin polymer. Amongst all the compositions, OMMT‐1.5 showed the best coating properties, with good scratch hardness (3.5 kg), impact (passes 200 lb/inch.) and bent test values (passes 1/8 inch). It can be commercially used as effective green coating material in future. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131, 40278. 相似文献

Ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer is studied as a host for low concentrations, up to 1 wt%, of organically treated clay. The clay develops a high interaction level with EVOH and thus high torque levels accompany the structuring process leading to the formation of nanocomposites. Extrusion residence time, successive extrusion passes, screw rotational speed, and processing temperature were all found to affect the morphology and the thermal and mechanical properties of the resulting composites. The extrusion compounded composites were subsequently injection molded. A subtle balance of processing parameters is required to achieve improved properties. Long extrusion residence times were found important for good clay dispersion in some cases, whereas in other cases an exfoliated structure was obtained already after the first extrusion pass. Two organically treated clay types processed at the same conditions were examined, and found to result in different morphology and mechanical behavior. Compression molding of extrusion compounded materials, under several extrusion conditions, was studied to illustrate the effect of shear level on the resulting morphology. The delamination level was higher after compression molding compared to that after injection molding. EVOH thermal properties and thermal stability of the related composites were also examined using differential scanning calorimetry and thermal gravimetric analysis. Higher extrusion processing temperature (220 compared to 200°C) was found to change the crystallization process of EVOH in the presence of clay, leading to significant decrease in Tm and Tc compared to that of the neat EVOH.

The aim of this study is to improve the fracture toughness of glass fiber reinforced polyamide 6,6 (PA6,6) composites by adding 1,4‐phenylene‐bis‐oxazoline (PBO). Essential work of fracture (EWF) analysis was conducted to analyze the effect of chain extender loading level on the fractural properties of composites. Three different wt% levels of chain extender were used (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 wt%). Results of EWF analysis revealed that 1.0 wt% PBO addition made a great contribution to the fracture energy of the composites. In addition to this, tensile test results showed that while 1.0 wt% PBO addition resulted in a significant increase in tensile strain of composites, 2.0 wt% PBO addition resulted in a significant increase in tensile strength. Dynamic mechanical analysis test results indicated that 2.0 wt% PBO added composites exhibited the highest storage modulus and the lowest tan delta peak height. Morphological analysis results were also coincided with other test results. POLYM. COMPOS., 38:2228–2236, 2017. © 2015 Society of Plastics Engineers 相似文献

In this study, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/starch composites were prepared by a simple solvent casting method. The morphologies of the PMMA/starch composites were studied by scanning electron microscopy. The intermolecular interaction between PMMA and starch was investigated with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The thermal properties of the PMMA/starch composites were compared with those of the pure PMMA sample. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that the thermal stability increased as the starch content increased in the composites. The biodegradability of the PMMA/starch composites was studied with a soil burial test. The degradability was measured in terms of mechanical strength, which increased as the starch content increased. The essential work of fracture (EWF) of the PMMA/starch composite films was investigated by the application of EWF theory under in‐plane (mode I) conditions, and we found that the toughness, in terms of the EWF of composites, increased compared to that of pure PMMA. The fracture of the composites was also evaluated by ANSYS software, and the results were compared to the experimental output. The increased toughness of these PMMA/starch composites may enable their application in the automobile and packaging industries. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci., 2013 相似文献

Organo‐montmorillonite/nitrile butadiene rubber (OMMT/NBR) nanocomposites were prepared by co‐coagulating process, and then were combined with rubber ingredient and vulcanized by traditional rubber mixing procedure. The SEM micrographs of the nanocomposites showed uniform dispersion of the OMMT particles in NBR. The ATR‐FTIR spectra illustrated the existence of montmorillonite in the nanocomposites. The XRD patterns further indicated the structure of nanocomposites, and confirmed an effective intercalation of NBR in the interlayer space of the OMMT. Moreover, the tensile strength and elongation at break of nanocomposites tended to increased rapidly with increasing OMMT loading, due to the reinforcing properties of OMMT to NBR. In addition, the TGA and DTA curves demonstrated the thermal performance of the nanocomposites enhanced. Furthermore, the addition of OMMT accelerated the vulcanization process. POLYM.

N,N‐Di(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐N‐dodecyl‐N‐methyl ammonium chloride was used as an intercalation agent to treat Na+‐montmorillonite and form a novel type of organic montmorillonite (OMMT). An OMMT master batch (OMMT‐MB) was prepared by solution intercalation and was used in the preparation of high‐temperature‐vulcanized silicone rubber (HTV‐SR)/OMMT‐MB nanocomposites. The properties, such as the tensile and thermal stability, were researched and compared with those of composites directly incorporated with OMMT or aerosilica. A combination of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy studies showed that HTV‐SR/OMMT‐MB composites were on the nanometer scale, and their structure was somewhat hindered by the presence of OMMT. The results showed that the tensile properties of HTV‐SR/OMMT‐MB and HTV‐SR/OMMT systems were better than those of pure HTV‐SR. Compared with those of HTV‐SR/OMMT‐20%, the tensile strength and elongation at break of HTV‐SR/OMMT‐MB‐20% were improved about 1.5 and 0.9 times, respectively. This was probably due to the nanoeffect of the exfoliated silicate layers. Moreover, the tensile strength of HTV‐SR/OMMT‐MB‐20% was nearly equal to that of HTV‐SR/aerosilica‐20%, and the elongation at break even showed much improvement. Additionally, the thermal degradation center temperature of the HTV‐SR/OMMT‐MB‐20% nanocomposite was increased by 30°C compared with that of the HTV‐SR/OMMT‐20% composite. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this research, OMMT/PVDF‐based cationic exchange membranes were prepared by two‐step chemically induced grafting method. The various preparation conditions, such as alkaline treatment, initiation, and grafting conditions, and the relationship between the preparation conditions and the cationic exchange membrane performance, such as area resistance and cationic permselectivity, were investigated. The chemical and crystal changes on the membrane surface were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), energy dispersive spectrum (EDS), and X‐ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. Surface morphological changes were also characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results reveal that the OMMT/PVDF‐based cationic exchange membrane was successfully prepared by this method. The OMMT/PVDF‐based cationic exchange membrane doped 8.5% OMMT prepared using optimum preparation parameters showed excellent basic properties. The area resistance was measured as low as 1.8 Ω cm2, while the cationic permselectivity was as high as 93.4%. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 130: 2753–2763, 2013 相似文献

The polymer, Hydrogenated Nitrile‐Butadiene Rubber (HNBR) was melt compounded with organophilic montmorillonite (OMMT). The dispersion of the OMMT in the HNBR matrix was characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), which indicated that at the temperature of 100°C, the organoclay belong to the exfoliated and interlayer structure. The effect of sulfur on the dispersion of OMMT in the polymer matrix was also studied. The vulcanization changed the dispersion of OMMT in polymer matrix greatly and the basal spacing of clay layers is decreased after vulcanization. The mechanical properties, Akron abrasion and the crude oil medium aging‐resistant of HNBR nanocomposites were examined as a function of the OMMT content in the matrix of polymer. The results of the test show remarkable improvement in tensile strength, tear strength, aging‐resistant, and hardness of HNBR nanocomposites than that of unfilled HNBR. It is obvious that the 10 phr of OMMT filled nanocomposites have the best mechanical properties. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010 相似文献
