Özet
PBT/clay nanocomposites were synthesized using organically modified clay via in-situ polymerization in the solution method. X-ray diffraction suggested an exfoliated nanostructure before polymerization and an intercalation after polymerization. TEM images confirmed the intercalated-exfoliated morphology in the ultimate polymer which contains 6 wt% of clay. The thermal stability of the nanocomposites containing 2 wt% of 20A organoclay was increased at least 8-10°C in a nitrogen medium.
