TLDR
A short background on the research work carried out on epoxy clay nanocomposites can be found in this paper, where the authors highlight the morphology and the final mechanical, thermal and barrier properties of the nanocomposition.Abstract:
The review renders a short background on the research work carried out on epoxy clay nanocomposites Clays are one of the ideal nano reinforcements for polymers because of their high intercalation chemistry and aspect ratio Epoxy clay nanocomposites are finding vast applications in various industries like aerospace, defense, automobile, etc The physical and chemical properties of the epoxy systems are influenced by the processing techniques, clay modifier and curing agents used for the preparation of nanocomposites The clay morphology (intercalation/exfoliation) of the nanocomposites is also depended on the above parameters So the emphasis of the present work is to highlight these parameters on morphology and the final mechanical, thermal and barrier properties of the nanocomposites The proposed applications of the epoxy clay nanocomposites are also discussedread more

Polymer-layered silicate nanocomposites: preparation, properties and uses of a new class of materials
TL;DR: In this article, a review of polymer-layered silicate nanocomposites is presented, where the polymer chains are sandwiched in between silicate layers and exfoliated layers are more or less uniformly dispersed in the polymer matrix.

Polymer Layered Silicate Nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this paper, a new, versatile and environmentally benign synthesis approach by polymer melt intercalation is discussed. But, unlike in-situ polymerization and solution inter-calation, melt interalation involves mixing the layered silicates with the polymer and heating the mixture above the softening point of the polymer.
