Fire and Gas Barrier Properties of Poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) Nanocomposites Using Polycaprolactone/Clay Nanohybrid Based-Masterbatch

Exfoliated nanocomposites are prepared by dispersion of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) grafted montmorillonite nanohybrids used as masterbatches in poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) (SAN). The PCL-grafted clay nanohybrids with high inorganic content are synthesized by in situ intercalative ring-opening pol...
