Solvent Effect on the Morphology of Lamellar Nanocomposites Based on HIPS

In this study, hybrid nanocomposites based on HIPS, high-impact polystyrene, were prepared in chloroform and in a 1:1 mixture of toluene and chloroform varying the quantity of organophilic montmorillonite. The morphology of the hybrid materials was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and proton...
