Regulation of the elasticity and temperature tolerance of polyacrylamide/Ca(OH)2 nanocomposite organogel using a two-component organic solvent

Most studies on enhanced polymer gels look at modifying the interaction between the polymer matrix and fillers. Here, a new strategy is proposed for the fabrication of a new kind of polyacrylamide/Ca(OH)2 nanocomposite organogel with tunable mechanical properties and temperature tolerance. By changing the solvent component, the properties of an organogel can be modulated without adding further reinforcing agent. Two commonly used organic...
