Organclays (OBNTs) were prepared using two new organic surfactants including 3-(4-aminophenyl)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-on (CH) synthesized from a Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction between p-aminoacetophenone and p-chlorobenzaldehyde; and 4-((4-nitrophenyl)diazenyl)-N-(pyrimidin-2-yl) (AZ) prepared from reaction of sulfadiazine and p-nitoaniline. Organclays OBNTs were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to evaluate the incorporation of surfactants in bentonite. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique was utilized to indicate the basal spacing of the treated clay as a measure of susceptibility of new organoclays. The FTIR and XRD results showed that the OBNTs were successfully incorporated in the layers of bentonite clay. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was also used to determine thermal stability. An enhancement in stability was observed in OBNTs compare to pure bentonite. OBNTs prepared in this study can be used to produce disposable packaging a promising polymer nanocomposite.

organoclays (oBnts) was prepared using two new organic surfactants including 3-(4-aminophenyl)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-on (cH) synthesized from a claisen-schmidt condensation reaction between p-aminoacetophenone and p-chloro benzaldehyde; and 4-((4-nitrophenyl) diazenyl)-n-(pyrimidin-2-yl) (Az) prepared from reaction sulfadiazine and p-nitoaniline. oBnts were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (Ftir) to evaluate the incorporation above surfactants in bentonite. the X-ray diffraction (XrD) technique was utilized to indicate the basal spacing of the treated clay as a measure of susceptibility of new organo clays. the Ftir and XrD results show that the oBnts were successfully incorporated in the bentonite clay. thermogravimetric analysis (tGA) was also used to determine thermal stability. An enhancement in stability was observed in oBnts compare to pure bentonite. oBnts prepared in this study can be used to produce disposable packaging polymer nanocomposite.

A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with a polybutylene succinate/epoxidized palm oil (PBS/EPO) clay nanocomposites; by using solution evaporation method, a new modified electrode PBS/EPO-clay nanocomposite was produced. The redox process of K 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] during cyclic voltammetry was studied using the PBS/EPO-clay nanocomposites. It was found that the peak separation (ΔEpa-c) between the redox peaks of Fe(II)/Fe(III) in an aqueous solution of 0.1 M KClO 4 and the current ratio of redox current peaks, (Ipa/Ipc) was ≈ 1 for the modified working electrode with PBS/EPO-clay nanocomposites, indicating good reversibility with weak conductivity of the modified electrode. The physical properties of the modified electrode PBS/EPO-clay nanocomposites included good hardness, high adhesion to the glassy carbon surfaces of electrode collectors, solubility and good stability of the PBS/EPO-clay nanocomposites at different pH media. Also, the sensitivity of the electrochemical analysis by cyclic voltammetric method was significantly dependent on the pH and the scan rate (SR). It was found that the couple of redox current peaks of K 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] in KClO 4 solution were a reversible process: Fe(III)/Fe(II).
