Thickness, modulus and strength of interphase in clay/polymer nanocomposites
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract The aim of the present work is to quantify the properties of interphase between the polymer matrix and the nanoclay in clay/polymer nanocomposites (CPN). Two micromechanics models, Ji and Pukanszky, are simply used to measure the modulus, strength and thickness of interphase by mechanical properties of nanocomposites. The suggested approach is applied to calculate and evaluate the interphase properties in various samples reported in the literature. The calculations clearly demonstrate the different properties of interphase compared to matrix and nanoclay phases. It is shown that the interphase usually has a significant thickness, modulus and strength in CPN which cannot be neglected in the final properties of nanocomposites.
