“…And, this ordered structure with a large contacting interface area, even without strong interactive parts, can still alter the dynamics of the nanocomposites. There has been a lot of research on the fabrication of polystyrene (PS)/ clay nanocomposites, and the degree of intercalation according to both their molecular weight and the surface properties of the silicate layer 3,5,6) . But, there has been no report on the dynamics of the intercalated PS chains in the nanoscopically confined geometries.…”
