Enhanced mechanical and thermal properties of polystyrene nanocomposites prepared using organo-functionalized NiAl layered double hydroxide via melt intercalation technique

The article reports upon the preparation and characterization of organo-functionalized NiAl layered double hydroxide (LDH)-polystyrene (PS) nanocomposites. Initially, pristine NiAl LDH was synthesized via the co-precipitation technique and was subsequently treated using sodium dodecyl sulfate to o...
