Abstract:
A polymer-clay nanocomposite based on Poly(butyleneterephthalate)
(PBT) and an innovative organoclay has been synthesized via intercalation of
Bis(hydroxyethyl terephthalate) (BHET) in Na-Montmorillonite layers. Chemical and
physical properties of this nanocomposite have been studied in comparison to other
PBT/nanocomposites based on two commercial organoclay: Cloisite 25A and Somasif
MEE. Nanocomposites have been prepared via melt compounding using a twin-screw
extruder, with extrusion rate of 150 rpm. Samples were characterized by using
wide-angle X-ray diffraction, TEM, thermal and mechanical analysis.
