Abstract: | 4,4′-Diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) was grafted on to organic–montmorillonite (OMMT) by reaction between hydroxyl groups (−OH) on surface of the montmorillonite and the isocyanate groups (−NCO) of MDI, thus forming grafted organic–montmorillonite (MOMMT). Intercalated nanocomposites based on polyurethane (PU) and MOMMT were prepared by solution intercalation technology. The interface interaction of PU/MOMMT nanocomposites was better than that of PU/MMT composites. The tensile strength, elongation at break, and tear strength of the PU/MOMMT nanocomposites increased for MOMMT content up to 5% w/w, and then decreased with further increase in MOMMT content. At the same filler content, the tensile strength and tear strength of PU/MOMMT nanocomposites were higher than those of PU/OMMT nanocomposites, whereas the elongations at break of PU/MOMMT nanocomposites were smaller than those of PU/OMMT nanocomposites. The initial temperatures of weight loss of PU/MOMMT nanocomposites were lower than for PU/MMT composites in the first step of thermal degradation, whereas in the second step initial temperatures of weight loss were higher for PU/MOMMT nanocomposites. |
