Morphology and linear viscoelasticity of poly[ethylene-co-(1-octene)]/layered silicate nanocomposites
Poly[ethylene-co-(1-octene)] nanocomposites with different microstructures were prepared with two kinds of organoclay by melt intercalation. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize the morphology of the composites. Linear storage moduli of the composites in the melt state were found to increase greatly with increasing the extent of dispersion of silicate layers and showed an obvious sensitivity to the morphologies of the composites.
