| Summary: | The modern trend is to prepare hybrid material using nano clay. Formation of nano clay, an exfoliated clay, and proper dispersion in a polymer matrix remains a challenge. The green composite so formed by clay polymer mixing has many improved properties such as high Tg (glass transition temperature), high flame resistance, high tensile strength, and improved barrier properties, which may find application in textile industry, automobile industry, environmental and polymer engineering field. |
