The procedure for the fabrication of epoxy-based polymer layered silicate nanocomposites
is important in respect of the nanostructure that is developed. To further our understanding of …

The non-isothermal cure kinetics of polymer silicate layered nanocomposites based on a tri-
functional epoxy resin has been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. From an …

In materials research, the development of polymer nanocomposites (PN) is rapidly emerging
as a multidisciplinary research field with results that could broaden the applications of …

The evaluation of the thermal performance of surface-modified fillers as well as polymer
nanocomposite materials is required as it affects the properties of the materials significantly …
