Polyolefins containing nanoclays modified with thermally stable ionic liquids

5 Polyolefins containing nanoclays modified with thermaUy stable ionic liquids [Pg.151]

Kim et al. [25] evaluated the thermal stability of PP/PP-g-MA mixtures containing 5 wt% unmodified MMT and MMT modified with different ILs by following torque versus time in a batch mixer. The sample containing MMT treated with thermally stable tV-ethylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate was shown to be as stable after 25 min mixing time as the sample that contained the clay without modifiers.

Clays modified with thermally stable ionic liquids [Pg.152]

Similar studies were carried out with polyethylene, which is also a nonpolar polymer with limited affinity toward unmodified clays. Stoeffier et al. [41] used clays modified with [Pg.152]
