Abstract
This research is to obtain nanocomposites of HDPE/bentonite clay. Inorganic polymers reinforced with materials are of great interest due to their applications in automotive, and electrical and electronic industries. The nanocomposites were produced by melt intercalation with different percentages of clay and compared with pure HDPE. Clay was used as modified and unmodified and it was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF). The obtained nanocomposites were characterized through thermogravimetry (TG). It was verified by XRF that clay performed compositions of bentonites characteristics. By XRD, it was observed increases basal spacing for organoclay. By TG, in general, it was verified that the nanocomposites presented greater thermal stability in relation to HDPE.
