摘要
Organically modified nanoclays have been reported to play the role of a compatibilizer for immiscible polymer blends. However, the mechanism of compatibilization by nanoclay has been reported differently. In this work, we investigated the exact mechanism of compatibilization of nanoclay in immiscible polystyrene (PS)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blend in the presence of sodium-montmorillonite (Na-MMT) through selective dispersion of clay in the matrix phase. Through a detailed investigation of the morphology of PS/PMMA/Na-MMT blend nanocomposites, the plausible mechanism behind the compatibilization effect of clay in immiscible blends has been proposed.
