Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) terpolymer is one of the major plastics in IT equipment waste stream. In the current research secondary ABS (s-ABS) is blended with polycarbonate (PC) by forming one of the most popular thermoplastics engineering system. The effect of organically modified montmorillonite clay (OMMT) on the tensile properties and thermal stability of PC+10wt.%s-ABS blend is investigated. Increase in stiffness, strength and thermal stability is observed along with rising OMMT content. Highest increments of the aforementioned properties are observed within the OMMT range of 1-1,5 wt.%.

ABSTRACTNanocomposites of α-hydroxy polyester, polylactide (PLA) and β-hydroxy polyester, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) with layered silicates have been successfully prepared by melt extrusion of PLA and PHB with organically modified montmorillonite (MMT) and fluoromica. The mechanical properties of the nanocomposites are improved compared to the neat polymers. Storage modulus increase up to 40% compared with the pure polymers by adding only 2–3 wt% nanoclay. Biodegradation can be controlled by the choice of the nanoclay used.

Nanocomposites based on layered silicate organically modified montmorillonite (Cloisite 20A) and acrylic comonomers (butyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate) were prepared by simple “in situ” batch emulsion polymerization method. The particle size and zeta potential of the emulsions were analyzed. The structural characterizations of the nanocomposites were performed by FTIR, thermal behaviors of the films were investigated by DSC, mechanical properties of the films were tested by DMA and intercalation success was viewed by XRD. The mechanical properties of the nanocomposites were improved significantly especially at the temperatures above Tg. The ultrasonication process was found to be useful for increasing the homogeneity of the emulsions and intercalation success. The obtained nanocomposite emulsions were applied on garment leathers in a finishing formulation as aqueous binders sharing good film forming ability and elasticity.

In this paper, we report the preparation of polyethylene composites with organically modified montmorillonite. Three different Na+-montmorillonites were modified in order to obtain organoclays and two grades of high-density polyethylene were used as composite matrices. All composites were prepared by melt blending, and their physical and mechanical properties were thoroughly characterized. The extent of clay platelet exfoliation in the composites was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Mechanical properties under static and impact conditions were evaluated to assess the influence of the reinforcement on the properties of polyethylene.
