Abstract

Attapulgite (ATP) reinforced poly(butylene succinateco-butylene adipate) (PBSA) nanocomposites were prepared by melt mixing in a HAAKE mixer.The fracture surfaces of PBSA/ATP nanocomposites showed superior interfacial linkage between ATP and PBSA matrix.The dynamic rheology properties of PBSA and PBSA/ATP nanocomposites were studied in this paper.The results showed that complex viscosity, storage modulus and loss modulus increased with increasing the clay content.Because of the interactions between polymer-filler and filler-filler,the network-like structures were formed.
