Abstract

High pressure method was used for the first time to produce rectorite clay (REC)/phenolic resin (PF) and organic rectorite clay (OREC)/phenolic resin and montmorillonite (MMT)/phenolic resin (PF) nanocomposites. The structure of the material phase was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The experimental results show that intercalated clay/resin nanocomposites could form under normal temperature and high pressure conditions by the intercalation of polymeric molecules rather than interlayer polymerization.
