Polyvinyl chloride/calcium carbonate (PVC/CaCO3) composites are widely used in the
construction industry to fabricate flooring materials. However, PVC materials have raised …

Nanocomposites based on bio-based Poly (ethylene 2, 5-furandicarboxylate), PEF, and
different nanoclays (either sepiolite or montmorillonite, both organically modified) were …

Thermal degradation of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is accelerated in the presence of
commercial organoclays, and this remains a challenge for the industry. While a high level of …

This work investigates the effects of clay chemistry and concentration on the morphology
and rheology of polyethylene terephthalate (PET)/clay nanocomposites. The complex …

The effect of increasing post-consumer bottle recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate)(RPET)
on optical, thermal (DSC and TGA) and mechanical properties of films prepared by extrusion …

An investigation of oleic acid‐modified clay versus plain clay with regard to the physical and
barrier properties of PET/clay nanocomposites was performed. Montmorillonite (MMT) and …

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) nanocomposite films were prepared by cast extrusion
followed by uniaxial stretching, using chill rolls. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) …

Novel nanocomposites of bio-based poly (ethylene 2, 5-furandicarboxylate)(PEF) and
organo-modified montmorillonite (OMMT) clays were prepared. Sample morphology was …

This book focuses on the subject of foams generated with polymer nanocomposite materials.
Polymer nanocomposites have been developed continuously for the last two decades …

Exfoliated poly (ethylene terephthalate)(PET)/organoclay nanocomposites were prepared by
extrusion blending method with different clay contents and molecular weights of raw PET …
