Experimental and theoretical studies on the mechanical and structural changes imposed by the variation of clay loading on poly(vinyl alcohol)/cloisite 93A nanocomposites by Kabalan L.

“…Depending on the interface interactions between polymeric chains and clay sheets, various classes of polymer/clay nanocomposite exist: Intercalated, flocculated and exfoliated nanocomposites. In this work, we present an experimental study of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-cloisite 93A followed by a classical molecular dynamic (MD) simulations. …”
