Properties of PE/Clay Nanocomposites Produced by High Performance Clay/BOMBisupported Ziegler-Natta Catalyst

PE/MMT nanocomposites have greatly progressed due to their potential as alternative low-cost and highperformance materials. This potential derives from thehigh aspect ratio of the MMT when its structure is delaminated by polymer. In fact, the delamination of the MMT layers results in a synergistic effects ofnanoscale structure which maximizes the interactions between MMT and polymer molecules [1].
