Effect of sepiolite organomodification on the performance of PCL/sepiolite nanocomposites [PDF]
Abstract Poly(e-caprolactone) (PCL) based nanocomposites with unmodified and organomodified sepiolites were prepared by solution casting method. The sepiolites were modified with short (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (SEP-SI) by using covalent grafting or with long hexadecylamine (SEP-HDA) by using ionic exchange.
