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...

Our continuing study of the mechanism of flammability reduction of polymer−layered-silicate nanocomposites has yielded results for polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride and polys...
Abstract A new polymer‐ceramic nanocomposite has been synthesized consisting of well‐dispersed, two‐dimensional layers of an organically modified mica‐type silicate (MTS) within...
The effect of silicate functionalization, anneal temperature, polymer molecular weight, and constituent interactions on polymer melt intercalation of a variety of styrene-deriva...
A mean-field, lattice-based model of polymer melt intercalation in organically-modified mica-type silicates (OLS) has been developed. In general, an interplay of entropic and en...
Polymer nanocomposites, especially polymer-layered silicate (PLS) nanocomposites, represent a radical alternative to conventionally (macroscopically) filled polymers. Because of...
