Advanced Thermoplastic Nanocomposite Melt Processing Using an Improved Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Pretreatment for the Nanomaterial

Polymer nanocomposites have been proposed as lightweight replacements for traditional composite materials in various applications. Montmorillonite (MMT) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are two nanofillers which have accrued significant interest in the past 20 years due to their superior mechanical and e...
