Synthesis, Characterization and Thermal Properties of Oxo Methacrylate-Containing Polymer/Clay Nanocomposites

In this study, synthesis and characterization of polymer/clay based nanocomposites was performed using 2-(4-methoxyphenyl amino)-2-oxoethyl methacrylate (MPAEMA) organoclay. The amount organoclay in synthesized by situ polymerization method determined as 3% 5%. FTIR, XRD, SEM were used techniques. It from XRD results that the morphology exfoliated. Then, thermal properties investigated TGA/DTA/DTG simultaneous system. analysis, it seen stability increased when clay increased. is thought newly synthetic with natural content will serve different areas due to its environmentally friendly-biodegradable properties.
