Molecular order and disorder of surfactants in clay nanocompositeswz
Nanocomposites of clay minerals and surfactants are of practical importance in many fields. Beside the use of these systems for pollution removal from waste water, they can also be used as catalysts, to stabilize clay formations while drilling for hydrocarbons, or for improving the strength of polymers. The nanocomposites are obtained through exchange of natural counter ions by ionic surfactant...
متن کاملPolymerically modified layered silicates: an effective route to nanocomposites.
Polymer/clay nanocomposites have been under an extensive investigation for about 15 years. Traditional methods to modify the clay are usually limited to small organic cations, preferably containing long alkyl chain(s), which are exchanged with the inorganic cations in the clay gallery. This article provides a comprehensive review on the strategies for clay modification using polymeric surfactan...
متن کاملFunctionalization of Bentonite by Intercalation of Surfactants
The functionalization of bentonite by intercalation of surfactants dodecylamine, hexadecylamine, octadecylamine, and the octadecyltrimethylammonium cation is described. Products are characterized by elemental analysis, thermal analysis, FT–IR spectra, and powder X-ray diffraction analysis. Laminar amine-clay nanocomposites contain about one mol amine per (Si,Al)4 clay unit, while the cationic s...
متن کاملA site-directed spin-labeling study of surfactants in polymer–clay nanocomposites
Polymer-clay nanocomposites exhibit much improved mechanical, physical, and chemical properties compared to the pure polymer. The interaction of polymer and organically modified silicates is mainly influenced by the surfactant layer in the system. To investigate the structure and dynamics of this surfactant layer, various electron paramagnetic spectroscopy (EPR) techniques were applied. Continu...
متن کاملThermal Properties of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate)/Organomodified Montmorillonite Nanocomposites Obtained by in situ Photopolymerization**
The organoclay/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanocomposites were prepared by in situ photopolymerization method using two solvents, ethanol and acetonitrile. The influences of organoclay loading, solvent nature and length of attached surfactant (C8 or C16) on thermal and mechanical properties were studied by thermogravimetric analysis and dynamic mechanical analysis. Alkylammonium surfactant...
