The thermal behavior of epoxy-smectite nanocomposites (hybrids) is examined by non-
isothermal thermogravimetry (TG, DTG and DTA) in air atmosphere. It has been shown that …

Epoxy–clay nanocomposites have been prepared with an organically modified
montmorillonite. The epoxy network was based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) …

Thermal properties of the organic–inorganic bicontinuous nanocomposites prepared via in
situ two-stage polymerization of various silanes, epoxy, and amine monomers are …

The Flory's gelation theory, non-equilibrium thermodynamic fluctuation theory and Avrami
equation have been used to predict the gel time tg and the cure behavior of epoxy …

The role of various quaternary ammonium-modified montmorillonites in epoxy/diamine
nanocomposite formation is examined to further refine the criteria for selection of organic …

Composites based on an epoxy resin, diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A and SiO 2
nanoparticles, unmodified and surface-modified with a coupling agent 3 …

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 thermal degradation behavior and thermal stability of epoxy-silica nanocomposites
were studied with thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Detailed and precise factors on the …

Nanocomposites are a new class of composites in which the reinforcing phase dimensions
are on the order of nanometer scale. In particular, the layered silicates are considered to be …

The results presented by a number of researchers indicate that the introduction of
montmorillonite into polymer matrix results in an increase of thermal stability of polymer …
