Morphological, viscoelastic and mechanical characterization of polypropylene/exfoliated graphite nanocomposites

Mechanical and Morphological Properties of PP/MWNT/MMT Hybrid Nanocomposites

Polypropylene/Multiwall carbon nanotubes/Montmorillonite (PP/MWNTs/MMT) hybrid nanocomposites were prepared by using twin-screw extruder incorporating the polypropylene grafted maleic anhydride (PP-g-mA) as compotibilizer is used for better dispersion of nanoclay in the polymer matrix. The effect of MWNTs and MMT on the polypropylene matrix was investigated in terms of mechanical properties of ...

Synthesis, morphological, characterization and evaluation of antibacterial effects of Silver-Polyaniline nanocomposites against Escherichia coli

Silver-Polyaniline (Ag-PANI) nanocomposites were prepared by in-situ oxidative polymerization of aniline monomer in sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) solution as an emulsifier. The synthesis of Silver-Polyaniline nanocomposites was investigated as a function of several parameters such as aniline concentration, concentration of emulsifier (AOT), concentration of oxidation agent and c...

Polyester/SiO2 Nanocomposites: Gas Permeation, Mechanical, Thermal and Morphological Study of Membranes

Using of nanocomposite membranes composed of polymer and inorganic nanoparticles is a novel method to enhance gas separation performance. In this study, membranes were fabricated from polyester (PE) containing silica (SiO2) nanoparticles and gas permeation properties of the resulting membranes were investigated. Morphology of the membranes, SiO2 distribution a...
