Journal ArticleDOI
Flammability Properties of Polymer - Layered-Silicate Nanocomposites. Polypropylene and Polystyrene Nanocomposites
Jeffrey W. Gilman,Catheryn L. Jackson,Alexander B. Morgan,Richard H. Harris,Evangelos Manias,Emmanuel P. Giannelis,Melanie Wuthenow,Dawn Hilton,Shawn H. Phillips +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanism of flammability reduction of polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride and polystyrene−layered-silicate nanocomposites using montmorillonite and fluorohectorite was investigated.
Book ChapterDOI
Polymer-silicate nanocomposites : Model systems for confined polymers and polymer brushes
TL;DR: In this article, the static and dynamic properties of polymer-layered silicate nanocomposites are discussed, in the context of polymers in confined spaces and polymer brushes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polypropylene/Montmorillonite Nanocomposites. Review of the Synthetic Routes and Materials Properties
TL;DR: The synthetic routes and materials properties of polypropylene/montmorillonite nanocomposites are reviewed in this article, where the resulting polymer/inorganic structures are characterized by a coexistence of intercalated and exfoliated montmorillonites layers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and Properties of Poly(vinyl alcohol)/Na+ Montmorillonite Nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this paper, a composite structure study revealed a coexistence of exfoliated and intercalated MMT layers, especially for low and moderate silicate loadings, which promoted a new crystalline phase different than the one of the respective neat PVA, characterized by higher melting temperature and a different crystal structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nested self-similar wrinkling patterns in skins.
Kirill Efimenko,Mindaugas Rackaitis,Mindaugas Rackaitis,Evangelos Manias,Ashkan Vaziri,Lakshminarayanan Mahadevan,Jan Genzer +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a hierarchical pattern consisting of self-similar buckles extending over five orders of magnitude in length scale, ranging from a few nanometres to a few millimetres, is presented.
