Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polymer-Layered Silicate and Silica Nanocomposites includes advanced materials and nanocomposites based on silica and layered silicates obtained from resources in China. Using nanotechnology, these inorganic materials can be filled, in-situ polymerised and combined with polymers with nanoscale dispersions. In this book, many practical examples are presented to show how to prepare the nanocomposites. Several kinds of polymer (PET,PBT,PE,PP,etc.)-layered silicate and silica nanocomposites are prepared and investigated based on our research works, inventions and applications. They are prepared and modified aiming at their applications to such fields as, functional films, barrier materials, coatings, and engineering plastics.

Book excerpt: This highlights ongoing research efforts on different aspects of polymer nanocomposites and explores their potentials to exhibit multi-functional properties. In this context, it addresses both fundamental and advanced concepts, while delineating the parameters and mechanisms responsible for these potentials. Aspects considered include embrittlement/toughness; wear/scratch behaviour; thermal stability and flame retardancy; barrier, electrical and thermal conductivity; and optical and magnetic properties. Further, the book was written as a coherent unit rather than a collection of chapters on different topics. As such, the results, analyses and discussions presented herein provide a guide for the development of a new class of multi-functional nanocomposites. Offering an invaluable resource for materials researchers and postgraduate students in the polymer composites field, they will also greatly benefit materials

This book was released on 2000 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polymer nanocomposites represent a radical alternative to conventionally (macroscopically) filled polymers. Because of their nanometer-size dispersion the nanocomposites exhibit markedly improved properties when compared to the pure polymers or conventional composites. These include increased modulus and strength, outstanding barrier properties, increased solvent and heat resistance and decreased flammability. In this paper the physical and mechanical properties of nanocomposites are reviewed and discussed in terms of their static and dynamic properties.

Book excerpt: Polymer-clay nanocomposites are formed through the union of two very different materials with organic and mineral pedigrees. The hybrid compositions, however, exhibit large increases in tensile strength, modulus, and heat distortion temperature as compared with the pristine polymer. The composites also have lower water sensitivity, reduced permeability to gases, and a similar thermal coefficient of expansion. All of these property improvements can be realized without a loss of clarity in the polymer. Further, it has been found that nanocomposites impart a level of flame retardance and UV resistance not present in the pure polymer. These improvements in performance properties at relatively low clay loading (typically 2 -10wt %) have stimulated intensive research in both industry and academia over the past decade. Polymer-Clay Nanocomposites presents the first comprehensive overview of the state of the art of these materials since they were first reported a decade ago. Covering both the theory and practical applications, this volume in the 'Wiley Series in Polymer Science' covers the key aspects of these important materials including: * Polymer-clay intercalates * The preparation and general properties of special practical and commercial significance (including strength, stiffness, toughness, permeability, fire retardation and chemical stability) * The elucidation of the structural and rheological factors influencing performance and processing properties Polymer-Clay Nanocomposites is an indispensable text for polymer scientists, composites formulators, materials engineers, resin producers, filters and additive producers as well as university lecturers, and organic and inorganic chemists working in this important and fascinating area.

Download or read book A Novel Approach to Obtain High Performance Layered Silicate Thermoset Polyimide Matrix Nanocomposites written by Michael J. Gintert and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of exfoliated layered silicates as reinforcing filler in polymer composites shows great potential for drastically improving the material properties. Much work has been done with thermoplastic systems showing improved composite properties from exfoliated clay reinforcement. More recently, thermoset systems have been increasingly studied, however little progress has been made in achieving full clay exfoliation in high performance thermoset polyimides, which otherwise possess desirable processability, thermal, and mechanical properties. Literature has shown that attaining necessary levels of clay exfoliation and dispersion in these materials is a challenge using current technology. This study explores a novel method of clay exfoliation, which involved prior intercalation of organoclay with lower molecular weight PMR-5 oligomer and incorporation of clay into higher molecular weight PMR-15 resin. In the process, the elastic force within clay galleries grows at a higher rate and pushes the clay platelets apart to yield an exfoliated clay structure. Process of clay intercalation by lower molecular weight PMR monomer is studied under conditions of low and high shear mixing and sonication, in order to determine effect of processing on properties. In addition, this work sought to determine an optimum organic treatment for nanoclay to be compatible with the method stated above. Specifically, an organic treatment should promote PMR-5 intercalation of clay and be stable at very high curing temperature, ~315°C. In this work four surfactants were used to treat clay, including hydrochloride salts of aliphatic and aromatic diamines and, reactive and non-reactive amines. The resultant mechanical, thermal, and rheological properties were evaluated as functions of clay type, degree of clay exfoliation, and clay intercalation strategies and compared with those available in literature. It was found that method of mixing plays a key role in achieving high degree of exfoliation, and a 1:3 ratio by weight of APND and C12 combination of surfactants are optimum to achieve maximum clay exfoliation and improvements in thermal and mechanical properties of PMR-15 composites. The resultant composites showed increased barrier properties, improved thermal stability, and increased flexural strength and strain in carbon fiber laminate composites compared to composites of neat PMR-15 resin. The new and novel method of clay exfoliation in PMR-15 resin explored in this work was met with success.
