The influence of plasma treated bentonite on the properties and structure of mechanically recycled polycaprolactone-based thermoplastic polyurethane/polycaprolactone blend (rTPU-PCL) was investigated. The bentonite clay was modified with oxygen, argon, and air plasma. The obtained rTPU-PCL/clay nanocomposites were characterized by Fourier infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy analyses. X-ray diffraction showed the increase of spacing between diffraction lattice planes of plasma treated bentonite. The treatment by plasma improves the clay dispersion in rTPU-PCL matrix independently on used plasma gasses. The mechanical properties of nanocomposites were improved when plasma treated clay was used.

“…The very promising FR effect of MeCy encouraged us to improve the mechanical properties of PA6/MeCy composite filament yarns with the simultaneous incorporation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon black (CB) with MeCy and, therefore, to increase the suitability of composite yarns for technical applications. Namely, CNTs represent a new generation of materials with unique chemical structures and high aspect ratios; they can provide excellent mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties to polymeric material already at low CNT concentrations . CB is a traditional material that has been used for decades for the improvement of the thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties of polymer composites because of its low cost and abundant supply .…”

Polyamide 6 (PA6) composite filament yarns were produced by the simultaneous incorporation of melamine cyanurate (MeCy) with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon black (CB) into a composite matrix in a melt-spinning process. The results show that the simultaneous incorporation of MeCy with CNTs or CB additives provided filaments with a uniform black color. Tensile analysis confirmed that a reinforcing effect was achieved when CB was used, whereas the CNTs induced a reducing effect on the filament tenacity. With regard to the burning behavior, the flame-retardant action of MeCy was preserved in the presence of CB but was significantly hindered when used in combination with CNTs. These results indicate that the mixture of MeCy and CB was much more compatible for the production of reinforced PA6 composite filaments with increased thermal stability and improved flame retardancy over those of the MeCy and CNTs.

“…Polyamide‐6 (PA6) has been classified as a major engineering thermoplastic material with excellent properties such as solvent resistance, easy processability, and good mechanical characteristics. However, these properties are related to the aggregation structure of nylon 6 molecule . PA6 is a semicrystalline polymer, which has two stable crystal forms (α and γ).…”

To improve the properties of polyamide 6 (PA6) composites, a series of modified PA6 composites was prepared by reaction extrusion. An amorphous PA6 was first obtained by the complexing reaction of Li 1 in lithium chloride with amino groups, and then epoxy resins, nano-SiO 2 as well as POE-g-MAH were in turn added into the PA6/LiCl system. The effect of different additives on the crystallization behavior and mechanical properties of PA6 composites was well-studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and mechanical properties tests. The results demonstrated that PA6 was amorphous at 6 phr lithium chloride and a network structure was formed in PA6 matrix in the presence of epoxy resins, thus the mechanical properties of composites greatly were enhanced. However too many nano-SiO 2 particles might impair the tensile strength of PA6 composites. Additionally, a PA6 composite with excellent properties was obtained in the presence of POE-g-MAH due to the crystal form change in PA6 matrix and the strong interaction between PA6 and POE-g-MAH.
