摘要: We report preparation and characterization of nanoclay from Indian bentonite imported nanoclays, their compounding with polypropylene (PP) maleic anhydride-grafted PP (MA-g-PP) in twin screw extruder. The compounded polymer/nanoclay nanocomposites (PNCs) are molded into a standard specimen for studying its tensile, flexural impact strength. A wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study demonstrates intercalation nanoclays rather than exfoliation both, indigenous nanoclays. tensile modulus increased by 41 39% PNC1 (PNC nanoclay) PNC2 respect to PP. also increases 23 22% due incorporation 5% along MA-g-PP.
