- Abstract
The article presents a study which prepared polystyrene (PS)/organomontmorillonite nanocomposites by melt processing and evaluated the effect of clay modification on the performance of the nanocomposites. Findings revealed the complete dispersion of clay layers. The researchers also found an increase in the storage modulus of the nanocomposites with the incorporation of organically modified nanoclays.
