The dynamic mechanical properties, phase morphology and thermal stability of the poly(trimethylene terephthalate)/maleinized poly(octene-ethylene)/organo-montmorillonite nanocomposites (PTT/POE/OMMT) were investigated by using the thermodynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA), respectively. The results suggest that the modulus of elasticity of the PTT/POE/OMMT nanocomposite increases, and the glass transition temperature first slightly decreases and then increases with increasing OMMT content because that the TPP plays the role of plasticizer and OMMT plays the role of reinforcing agent. OMMT disperse evenly in the polymer matrix with most of the strip-like sheet morphology. The addition of the OMMT does not apparently affect the thermal stability of the PTT/POE/OMMT nanocomposite.

The capability of layered double hydroxide has been explored as a potential flame retardant filler and the effect of the mechanical properties, dynamic mechanical properties, and thermal stability of the composites was also studied.

Abstract The thermal and dynamic mechanical properties of epoxy composites filled with zirconium diboride/nano-alumina (ZrB2/Al2O3) multiphase particles were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic thermo-mechanical analysis, and numerical simulation. ZrB2/Al2O3 particles were surface organic functional modified by γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane for the improvement of their dispersity in epoxy matrix. The results indicated that the curing exotherm of epoxy resin decreased significantly due to the addition of ZrB2/Al2O3 multiphase particles. In comparison to the composites filled with unmodified particles, the modified multiphase particles made the corresponding filling composites exhibit lower curing reaction heat, lower loss modulus, and higher storage modulus. Generally speaking, the composites filled with 5 wt% modified multiphase particles presented the best thermal stability and thermo-mechanical properties due to the better filler-matrix interfacial compatibility and the uniform dispersity of modified particles. Finite element analysis also suggested that the introduction of modified ZrB2/Al2O3 multiphase particles increased the stiffness of the corresponding composites.
