“…The HNTs generated an improvement of tensile strength and elongation at break of ethylene propylene diene monomer even at high composition. 43 Moreover, HNTs (few percent) in industrial oil-based paint generated an improvement of the tensile properties. 20 Tensile tests carried out on the HM pectin/laponite RD (C f = 20 wt %) showed a significant worsening of the mechanical properties (Table 4).…”

Dispersions of nanofillers into aqueous and solid biopolymeric matrices were studied from the physicochemical viewpoint. This work was carried out based on the idea that the combination of biopolymers, derived from renewable resources, and nanofiller, environmentally friendly, may form a new generation of nanomaterials with excellent and unique properties at low cost. To this purpose, two pectins with different degrees of methyl esterification and nanoclays like halloysite and laponite RD were selected. The thermodynamic and structural studies on the aqueous mixtures of pectin and nanoclay were able to discriminate the interactions, which control the adsorption of pectin onto the filler and the aggregation of both pectin and clay particles. The gained insights were useful to interpret the mesoscopic structure of the nanocomposites (prepared from the aqueous mixtures by means of the casting method) evidenced by SEM, thermal stability, tensile properties, and transparency investigations. The attained knowledge represents a basic point for designing new hybrid nanostructures in both the aqueous and the solid phase for specific purposes.

“…However, at higher temperatures, MDF with carbon fibers performed better in thermal stability than without carbon fibers with a higher char residue of 22.15 wt% at 600 °C. It was reported in previous studies that the addition of nano-clay platelets would efficiently raise the char residue of polymers at high temperatures (Hwang et al 2010;Madaleno et al 2010;Chatterjee and Islam 2008;Ismail et al 2008).…”

a Carbon fibers were synthesized using a low-cost, economical method. Fresh rubber wood fibers (Hevea brasiliensis) were burned using a furnace in an inert condition at 350 to 450 o C for 2-4 hours, and after that the fibers were ground at 18000 rpm for 20 to 40 seconds. The effect of carbon fibers as a reinforcement agent on mechanical, physical, and morphological properties was investigated. In the composite preparation, carbon fiber dosages (0, 0.1, 0.25, and 0.5 wt.%) were used as variable factors, along with a urea formaldehyde content of 10%. The morphology of the specimens was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). The mechanical tests indicated that when carbon fibers were added, the modulus of rupture (MOR) and internal bonding strength (IB) improved significantly. From the TGA graph it was observed that the thermal stability of the composites based on carbon fiber was higher than composites without it. The thermocouple readings showed that at a higher loading of carbon, the core temperature of the board increased faster than for the control board.

Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are natural occurring mineral clay nanotubes that have excellent application potential in different fields. However, HNTs are affected by size effect, surface electron effect and hydrogen bond formation on the surface which lead to weak affinity and prone to reunion at some extent. It is very significant to modify the HNTs' surface for expand its applications. In this review, the structural characteristics, performance and the related applications of surface modification HNTs are reviewed and summarized. we focus on the surface modified methods of HNTs, the effect of surface modification on materials and its related applications in various regions. In addition, future prospects and the meaning of surface modification have been discussed in HNTs studies. This review provided a reference for the application of HNTs modifications in new fields.
