Abstract

AbstractSummary: Polymer nanocomposites formed from organically modified montmorillonite offer the promise of greatly improved properties over those of the matrix polymer, provided the organoclay can be dispersed, or exfoliated, into the polymer matrix to generate high aspect ratio particles. The exfoliation of organoclays in two series of ethylene‐based polymers, ethylene‐vinyl acetate copolymers and sodium ionomers of ethylene‐methyacrylic acid copolymers, is described along with the properties of these nanocomposites.
