Modelling stiffness of polymer/clay nanocomposites
Abstract
Aligned nanoclay particles can be distributed randomly in a polymer matrix even at high volume fractions, but randomly oriented particles cannot be randomly distributed at high volume fractions. Instead a nanocomposite where there are clusters of nearly aligned particles is obtained. The clusters of nearly aligned particles form an effective particle with lower aspect ratio. This phenomenon which produces a nanocomposite of less stiffness than...
