Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The recent developments in study of intercalation compound of polymers/clay nanocomposites were outlined in this paper. According to the differences of intercalation principles and intercalation ways, the preparing methods of intercalation were classified into three categories, (1) monomer intercalation; (2) polymer intercalation in solution; (3) polymer melt-intercalation. Every means was described in detail and the differences of the three intercalation were also summarized. These means and point to respective advantages were compared. The melt-extrusion preparing method is especially proposed and it will be widely used in the future. The developments and applications of polymers/clay nanocomposites are prospected in different fields.
