Characterization of layered silicate dispersion in polymer nanocomposites using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to characterize the state of dispersion of layered silicate in polymer nanocomposites. The nanocomposite samples were based on poly(hexamethylene isophthalamide) and montmorillonite nanoclay prepared by melt intercalation. The infrared spectra...
