Sorption of Bisphenol A as Model for Sorption Ability of Organoclays [PDF]
Molecules, 2022 The arrangement of bisphenol A molecules into organoclays and their interactions with the intercalated surfactant were studied. The organoclays were prepared via solid-state intercalation of four cationic surfactants, such as dodecyltrimethyl ...

Organoclay-polymer nanocomposites [PDF]
Zastita Materijala, 2014 The properties of polymer nanocomposites exceed the properties of common composite materials due to the nanoscale size and morphology of the fillers used. Particulate fillersare commonly used in polymers forimproved mechanical and thermal properties, as well as modified electrical properties and cost reduction.

Surface Structure of Organoclays [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie, 2004 The properties of organically modified clay minerals determine essentially the quality of polymer-clay nanocomposites. We investigate alkylammonium-micas with different alkyl chain length by molecular dynamics simulation as homogeneous mixtures and separated island structures on the mica surface (80 percent alkali exchange, 20 percent of the alkali ...
