Abstract
Allyl trimethylsiloxybutyl ether (ATE) and 3-(trimethylsiloxy) benzylmethacrylate (TBM), tow novel silane involving monomers were successfully synthesized. Then, by in situ intercalative emulsion polymerization of styrene (St), butyl acrylate (BA), ATE and TBM, poly (silane-co-styrene-co-butylacrylate)/montmorillonite, P (Si-co-St-co-BA)/OMMT nanocomposite emulsions were prepared. The structures of monomers were clarified by the FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and 13 C-NMR spectroscopic techniques and nanocomposites by FT-IR. The results indicated that addition of OMMT improved the thermal and morphological properties of emulsions and among the samples tested, the modified nanocomposites which were prepared by intercalating 1 wt% OMMT showed the most desirable effect. It was also demonstrated by TEM that OMMT addition causes some clusters or agglomerated particles into the polymer matrix and the most OMMT layers are dispersed homogeneously.
