Abstract
ABSTRACTIn this study, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene/ethylene vinyl acetate-based melt blends were prepared using linear low-density polyethylene as modifier. Commercially available sodium montmorillonite clay was organically modified and incorporated in blends. Fourier transformed infrared was used to confirm the structure of the blend and composites. Morphology of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene / ethylene vinyl acetate blend showed two-phase structure that formed a well-aligned pattern with fine nanoclay distribution. Addition of organo-modified clay depicted increase in tensile strength (43%) and modulus (89%) in damage-free range. XRD results of sodium montmorillonite, organically modified Na-montmorillonite, and PNCs were compared to investigate the degree of dispersion in matrix.
