Synergistic Effect of 30 B and 15 A Organoclays and Compatibilizer on Improved Barrier Properties of HDPE/PA6 Composites: Preparation and Characterization
Azita Alipour
Abstract:Rigid containers constructed from high density polyethylene (HDPE) have high permeability toward hydrocarbons and organic molecules. This problem causes loss of fuel from gasoline tank of automobiles. Polyamide 6, organoclays (Oclays) and compatibilizer (Cp) are effective components for increasing of barrier properties of polyethylene. Three-component nanocomposites composed of HDPE/HDPE-g-MAH/ PA6/Oclay were produced via twin-screw co-rotating extruder melt mixing method. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning … Show more
