The purpose of this study was to obtain polyamide 6 nanocomposites with national organically modified clay with three quaternary ammonium salts. The obtained results confirm the intercalation of molecules of salt in the clay layers, and a good interaction with the polymer, showing the formation of intercalated and/or partially exfoliated structures. The nanocomposites showed similar thermal sta...

Star-burst tetranuclear Ru(iii) complexes, Delta-(or Lambda-)[{Delta-(or Lambda-)-Ru(iii)(acac)(2)(taet)}(3)Ru(iii)] (acac = acetylacetonato; taet = tetraacetylethanato), were prepared and resolved into eight enantiomers on a column packed with an ion-exchange adduct of a clay and Delta-[Ru(ii)(phen)(3)](2+) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), demonstrating that the dual chiralities of the central an...

The main purpose of the current research is comparing the results of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) with regard to determination of the importance of soil properties affecting clay dispersibility. After taking samples from two depths of 0-40 and 40-80 cm, the spontaneous and mechanical dispersions of clay were recorded using both weighing and ...

The paper introducedeffects of modified pyrolysis tar on flue gas desulfurization. This experiment selected the pyrolysis tar as the raw material, researched the effects on desulfurization performance under different modification solution, concentration, solid liquid ratio of pyrolysis tar and modified solution, calcination temperature and calcination time by 16 group orth...

Flame retardancy is the property that highly demanded when it comes to deal with plastics in different industries. In this research general purpose polystyrene (GPPS) and modified sepiolite clay are melt blended together fabricate flame retardant nanocomposites. Structural analysis were performed help of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. Morpholo...

the corrosion protection of mild steel by a newly developed epoxy-based coating system containing inherently conducting nanopolyaniline-clay as a nanoadditive has been studied. polyaniline-clay anticorrosion nanoadditive (pcna) was obtained by the direct mixing method of nanopolyaniline (0.03 wt.%) and organo-modified clay (3 wt.%) at atmospheric pressure, and xrd technique was used to study d-...
