A thermoanalytical assessment of an organoclay [PDF]
Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2011 High resolution thermogravimetric analysis (TG) has attracted much attention in the synthesis of organoclays and its applications. In this study, organoclays were synthesised through ion exchange of a single cationic surfactant for sodium ions, and characterised by methods including X-ray diffraction (XRD) and TG.

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.The abstract explains the impact of various concentrations of chitosan on PBAT composite. Indeed, the composite is produced at increasing concentrations of chitosan (10%, 20%, and 30%). The decrease in the tensile strength with increased conc. of chitosan was recorded. Furthermore, the same impact was recorded for TGA analysis.

Geotechnical properties of some organoclays
Sadhana, 2013 The engineering characteristics of clay are dependant on its mineral and chemical structure. When the clay soils interacted with water, their volume and shear strength and compressibility properties change gradually. Large amount of decrease in terms of the shear strength of clay soils due to swelling is observed.

A Facile Catalytic Route for the Preparation of Poly(methyl acrylate)/Clay Nanocomposites
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 8, August 2026.Poly(methyl acrylate) was synthesized via ATRP and subsequently utilized for the preparation of polymer/clay nanocomposites through an organocatalytic transesterification strategy. The catalytic approach enabled effective interaction between PMA chains and montmorillonite layers under mild conditions.
