A comparative study on the effect of clay loading under normal and auto thermal extrusion to the morphology structure and thermal stability of nylon 6 nanocomposites

The main purpose of this thesis is to study the influence of auto thermal extrusion on the thermal stability and morphology of fabricated PA6/C20A nanocomposite.The organically modified layered silicates type Cloisite 20A (the montmorillonite modified with a quaternary ammonium salt) and Polyamide 6...
