polypropylene / polystyrene blends containing montmorillonite (mmt) were prepared using a twin screw extruder followed by fiber spinning. the melt intercalation of pp and ps alloys was carried out in the presence of a compatibilizer such as maleic anhydride-g-polypropylene (mpp). the crystallization morphology, thermal behaviors and mechanical properties of polypropylene/polystyrene (pp/ps) nan...

Abstract This paper focuses on enhancing the performance of intercalated melt-blown nonwoven materials through control. The study explores whether structural variables (thickness, porosity, and compression resilience ratio) indicators (filtration resistance efficiency) products undergo significant changes, using analysis variance (ANOVA). experimental results indicate that intercalation signifi...

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)/organic-montmorillonite composites were prepared by melt intercalation. Their structures and properties were investigated with X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and mechanical testing. The results showed that PVC chains could be intercalated into the gallery of organically modified montmorillonite to form exfoliated PVC/organic-montmorillo...

Abstract Melt-blown nonwovens have fine fiber diameter, excellent filtration performance, small pores, and large specific surface area. However, the fluffiness of material is not good enough. Adding conventional fibers into melt-blown can increase thickness material, improve sound-absorbing performance heat preservation material. To study how much be added to make better, grey correlation analy...

In this paper, intercalation of nanoclay in the miscible polymer blend of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and acrylic rubber(ACM) was studied. X-ray diffraction was used to investigate the formation of nanoscale polymer blend/clay hybrid. Infrared spectroscopy and X-ray analysis revealed the coexistence of β and γ crystalline forms in PVDF/Clay nanocomposite while α crystalline form was found ...

Tapioca starch, poly(lactic acid), and Cloisite NA+ nanocomposite foams, with four clay contents (1, 3, 5, 7, wt %), were prepared by melt-intercalation method. Selected structural, thermal, physical, and mechanical properties were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and an Instron universal testing machine, respectively....
