Abstract

In this work, we study the effect of the structure and charge state on the strength properties of nanocomposites prepared on the basis of polypropylene (PP) and Dk2 nanoclays. It is shown that the addition of the Dk2 nanoclay into the PP polymer increases the concentration of the centers of localization of electric charges; that is, interfacial layers are formed at the polymer-nanoclay interface; they can play the role of a trap for charges; this results in an increase in the density and stability of the electret charges. A change in the interfacial interactions and the thickness of the boundary layer can have an effect on the strength properties of the nanocomposite.
