Abstract
This study describes an effective way for the preparation of well-dispersed poly(vinylalcohol) (PVA)/bentonite and poly(vinylalcohol)/modified bentonite nanocomposites with improved thermal properties. Nanocomposites were synthesized by effectively dispersing the inorganic nanolayers of bentonite in PVA matrix via the solution intercalation method. Bentonite was calcinated at 150 and 650 °C and modified with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane...
