Mechanical properties of clay–polyimide (BTDA–ODA) nanocomposites via ODA‐modified organoclay

Clay–polyimide [3,3′, 4,4′‐benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride–4,4′‐oxydianiline (BTDA–ODA)] nanocomposites were synthesized from ODA‐modified montmorillonite (organoclay) and poly(amic acid). The layered silicates of organoclay were intercalated by polyimide (BTDA–ODA), as confirmed by X‐ray diffraction and by transmission electron microscopy, and the tensile mechanical properties of the nanocomposites were measured. It was found that the modulus and the maximum stress of these organoclay/BTDA–ODA nanocomposites were much higher than those of pure BTDA–ODA: a twofold increase in the modulus and a one‐half‐fold increase in the maximum stress in the case of 7/93 organoclay–BTDA‐ODA. In addition, the elongation‐for‐break of organoclay/BTDA–ODA nanocomposites is even slightly higher than that of pure BTDA–ODA, which is a sharp contrast to that of conventional inorganics‐filled polymer composites. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Preparation and Characterization of Intercalated Polymethacrylamide/Na‐Montmorillonite Nanocomposites

Polymethacrylamide/Na‐montmorillonite nanocomposites have been prepared by free‐radical polymerization. All the nanocomposites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and differential thermal analysis. The thermal properties of nanocomposites are notably improved by the presence of the montmorillonite layers in comparison with pure polymethacrylamide. X‐ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy confirmed that polymethacrylamide could be easily inserted between the layers of Na‐montmorillonite to form intercalated nanocomposites, and significantly large d‐spacing expansions from 1.19 to 2.93 nm of the nanocomposites. Adsorptive properties of nanocomposites were also investigated.     

Thermal and mechanical properties of PE/organoclay nanocomposites

Polyethylene/montmorillonite clay nanocomposites were obtained via direct melt intercalation. The clay was organically modified with four different types of quaternary ammonium salts. The objective of this work is to study the use of montmorillonite clay in the production of nanocomposites by means on rheological, mechanical and crystallization properties of nanocomposites and to compare to the properties of the matrix and PE/unmodified clay nanocomposites. In general, the tensile test showed that the yield strength and modulus of the nanocomposites are close to the pure PE. Apparently, the mixture with Dodigen salt seems to be more stable than the pure PE and PE/unmodified clay.     

Polyimide/montmorillonite nanocomposites with photolithographic properties

Polyimide/montmorillonite nanocomposites with photolithographic properties (PSPI/MMT) were prepared by in situ polymerization using an intrinsic photosensitive polyimide (PSPI) based on 4,4^′-diamino-3,3^′-dimethyldiphenylmethane (MMDA) and benzophenone-3,3^′,4,4^′-tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA). XRD, TEM were used to obtain the information on morphological structure of PSPI/MMT nanocomposites. The exfoliated structure was obtained in the MMT content range studied. Satisfactory photolithographic patterns were obtained when the MMT content was below 2 wt.%. Universal tester, TGA, DSC were applied to characterize the mechanical and thermal properties of the nanocomposites. The introduction of MMT led to increase in tensile strength to the PSPI matrix while the elongation at break was not obviously effected. The introduction of MMT also resulted in improved thermal stability, marked decrease in coefficient of thermal expansion, decrease in solvent uptake, slight increase in glass transition temperature and increase in modulus.     

Structural and dielectric properties of POSS reinforced polyimide nanocomposites

In this study, a series of [3-(2-aminoethyl)amino]propyl-heptaisobutyl substituted polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (AHIP) containing polyimide (PI) nanocomposites were successfully prepared. Structural, thermal and electrical properties of the polyimide nanocomposites were studied. The properties of AHIP containing polyimides were compared with those of the neat polyimide films. The surface morphology of the prepared AHIP containing polyimides were determined by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The hydrophilic/hydrophobic nature of AHIP/polyimide composites were analyzed by measuring their water contact angles. It was found that the addition of AHIP into the polyimide slightly increased the contact angle values. The incorporation of 5% AHIP to the PI matrix decreased the dielectric constant value of pure PI from 8.6 to 11.7, respectively. Furthermore he dielectric permittivity was changed from 8.6 (neat polyimide) to 5.5 (PI3).     

Synthesis of Biodegradable Polycaprolactone/Montmorillonite Nanocomposites by Direct In-situ Polymerization Catalysed by Exchanged Clay

Poly (e-caprolactone) (PCL) layered silicate nanocomposites have the advantage adding biocompatibility and biodegradability to the traditional properties of nanocomposites. They can be prepared by in situ ring-opening polymerization of e-caprolactone using conventional initiator to induce polymerization in the presence of an organophilic clay, such as organomodified montmorillonite. In this work, we have used an alternative method to prepare poly(e-caproilactone)/montmorillonite nanocomposites. The cationic polymerization of e -caprolactone was initiated directly by Maghnite-TOA, organomodified montmorillonite clay, to produce nanocomposites. Resulted nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), force atomic microscopy (AFM) and thermogravimetry. The evolution of mechanical properties was also studied.

Polymer/montmorillonite nanocomposites with improved thermal properties: Part I. Factors influencing thermal stability and mechanisms of thermal stability improvement

The results of recent research indicate that the introduction of layered silicate - montmorillonite - into polymer matrix results in increase of thermal stability of a number of polymer nanocomposites. Due to characteristic structure of layers in polymer matrix and nanoscopic dimensions of filler particles, several effects have been observed that can explain the changes in thermal properties. The level of surface activity may be directly influenced by the mechanical interfacial adhesion or thermal stability of organic compound used to modify montmorillonite. Thus, increasing the thermal stability of montmorillonite and resultant nanocomposites is one of the key points in the successful technical application of polymer-clay nanocomposites on the industrial scale. Basing on most recent research, this work presents a detailed examination of factors influencing thermal stability, including the role of chemical constitution of organic modifier, composition and structure of nanocomposites, and mechanisms of improvement of thermal stability in polymer/montmorillonite nanocomposites.     

Effect of carbon nanotubes on mechanical and electrical properties of polyimide/carbon nanotubes nanocomposites

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) reinforced polyimide nanocomposites were synthesized by in situ polymerization using 4,4′-oxydianilline, MWNTs, and pyromellitic dianhydride followed by casting, evaporation and thermal imidization. A homogeneous dispersion of chemically modified MWNTs was achieved in polyimide matrix as evidenced by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The incorporation of the modified MWNTs enhanced the mechanical properties of the polyimide due to the presence of strong interfacial interaction between the polymer matrix and the nanotubes in polymer composites. The resultant polyimide/MWNTs nanocomposites were electrically conductive with significant conductivity enhancement at 3 wt% MWNTs, which is favorable for many practical uses.     

Thermal behaviors of polyimide with plasma-modified carbon nanotubes

A series of plasma-modified carbon nanotubes with maleic anhydride (mCNT) based on polyimide (mCNT/PI) nanocomposites were prepared by a two-step method. The mCNT/PI nanocomposites exhibit excellent thermal properties owing to mCNT and its good dispersion in the polyimide matrix. The TEM patterns were proved to show dispersed behavior of mCNT in the PI matrix. By using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), thermogravimetric with infrared spectra (TGA-IR), we discuss the kinetic behavior during the degradation of nanocomposites. Then Ozawa and Kissinger's theorems were calculated based on the relationship between activation energy and mCNT content.
