Clay modification for the production of polystyrene nanocomposites by melt processing
Natural Montmorillonite was modified with thermally stable phosphonium surfactants to produce new organoclays for the production of polymer nanocomposites. The organoclays were characterized to determine thermal stability, basal spacing, and the surface energy at room temperature and at the processi...
