Morphology and permeability of exfoliated PVAc‐MMT nanocomposite films cast from soap‐free emulsion‐polymerized latices

In this study, we exclusively found that the exfoliated poly(vinyl acetate)‐montmorillonite (PVAc‐MMT) nanocomposite latices could be straightforwardly fabricated by soap‐free emulsion polymerization and cast into a film. The as‐fabricated films were transparent with the exfoliated MMT nanoplatelets in flat form uniformly dispersed in the PVAc matrix. Certain bonding of PVAc matrix to the exfoliated MMT nanoplatlets refrained it from removal by acetone in Soxhlet extraction. Exfoliated MMT nanoplatlets (10 wt %) in the film was able to reduce the water vapor permeability coefficient to only 9% that of the neat PVAc. According to the generalized Nielsen's permeability model for the composites containing impermeable fillers in sheet form, the average aspect ratio of exfoliated MMT platelets was calculated as 327, similar to those directly estimated by atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dispersion and distribution of organically modified montmorillonite in nylon‐66 matrix

Nylon‐66 nanocomposites were prepared by melt‐compounding nylon‐66 with an alkyl ammonium surfactant pretreated montmorillonite (MMT). The thermal stability of the organic MMT powders was measured by thermogravimetric analysis. The decomposition of the surfactant on the MMT occurred from 200 to 500 °C. The low onset decomposition temperature of the organic MMT is one shortcoming when it is used to prepare polymer nanocomposites at high melt‐compounding temperatures. To provide greater property enhancement and better thermal stability of the polymer/MMT nanocomposites, it is necessary to develop MMT modified with more thermally stable surfactants. The dispersion and spatial distribution of the organic MMT layers in the nylon‐66 matrix were characterized by X‐ray diffraction. The organic MMT layers were exfoliated but not randomly dispersed in the nylon‐66 matrix. A model was proposed to describe the spatial distribution of the organic MMT layers in an injection‐molded rectangular bar of nylon‐66/organic MMT nanocomposites. Most organic MMT layers were oriented in the injection‐molding direction. Layers near the four surfaces of the bar were parallel to their corresponding surfaces; whereas those in the bulk differed from the near‐surface layers and rotated themselves about the injection‐molding direction. The influence of the spatial distribution of the organic MMT on crystallization of nylon‐66 was also investigated. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Preparation and properties of PU/MCMMT nanocomposites

The cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) was used as a swelling agent to be intercalated into the galleries of the montmorillonite (MMT) platelets to get the organic MMT (CMMT). Then 4,4′‐diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) were grafted on CMMT by the reaction between hydroxyls in organic MMT platelets and MDI to synthesize the MDI modified CMMT (MCMMT). Polyurethane (PU)/MCMMT composites were prepared by situ polymerization. The MCMMT platelets dispersed in a PU matrix in nanometer scale. The dispersion and intercalation degree of the MCMMT platelets decreased with increase in the content of MCMMT. Under the same content of fillers, the tensile strength and tear strength of PU/MCMMT nanocomposites were higher than those of PU/organic MMT nanocomposites. The reinforcing effect of the MCMMT platelets to the PU was better than that of the organic MMT platelets. With increase in the content of MCMMT, the tensile strength and tear strength of the PU/MCMMT nanocomposites were increased, while the extent of the increase slowed down. Compared with those of PU, the thermal stability of PU/MCMMT nanocomposites was increased. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Immobilization of poly(fluorene) within clay nanocomposite: an easy way to control keto defect

Blue light emitting cationic polyfluorene polymer(PF)/montmorillonite (MMT) nanocomposites were prepared by solution intercalation and exfoliation method to evaluate the effect of MMT on the nanocomposite structures, properties and morphologies. The properties of PF-MMT composites, containing 1-50 mass% MMT, were characterized unambiguously with the help of multiple analytical techniques, with focus on the keto defect and photostability of PF in the nanocomposites. XRD and HRTEM studies reveal both exfoliation of MMT galleries at lower content of MMT in composites and intercalation of PF chains into the MMT galleries at higher MMT content. The nanocomposites show higher thermal stability than pristine PF as anchorage of nanoclay in PF matrix occur through the electrostatic interaction between nanoclay and polymer. The decrease in Si-O-Si stretching frequency during exfoliation is much higher than in intercalation, as Si-O-Si experience lesser hindrance to vibrate in exfoliated MMT galleries. The gradual redshift of π-π(*) transition peak of PF with increasing MMT content in composites confirms the uncoiling of PF in clay galleries. The photoluminescence characteristics reveal interruption of interchain interaction in this intercalated and exfoliated organic/inorganic hybrid system, which reduces the low-energy emission that results from keto defect. Due to very high aspect ratio of MMT, it can act as an efficient exciton blocking layer and a barrier to oxygen diffusion, which may lead to a device with high color purity and enhanced photostability. Again current-voltage characteristics of nanocomposite films confirm the retention of LED properties after nanocomposite formation.     

Isotactic Poly(propylene)/Monoalkylimidazolium‐Modified Montmorillonite Nanocomposites: Preparation by Intercalative Polymerization and Thermal Stability Study

Summary: Poly(propylene)/monoalkylimidazolium‐modified montmorillonite (PP/IMMT) nanocomposites were prepared by in situ intercalative polymerization of propylene with TiCl₄/MgCl₂/MMT catalyst. The PP synthesized possessed high isotacticity and molecular weight. Both wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examinations evidenced the nanocomposite formation with exfoliated MMT homogeneously distributed in the PP matrix. A thermal stability study revealed that the nanocomposites possess good thermal stability.
