Abstract:This article compares two exfoliation options of multilayered silicate, one considering the action of shear stress and temperature during melt compounding and another takeing into account the action of the thermo-mechanical pretreatment of multilayered silicate in a plasticizer common to the starch and polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH), the two polymers from the compound. Increasing the action time of the shear stress and temperature during melt compounding proved to be an ineffective method for silicate exfoliation fo… Show more
