In this study, nonmiscible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) polymers were made miscible by using MA‐St‐MMA terpolymer as a compatibilizer. Maleic anhydride‐styrene‐methyl methacrylate (MA‐St‐MMA) terpolymer was synthesized in our laboratory and used. The synthesized terpolymer was determined by FT‐IR spectroscopy. Equal mass PVC/PMMA mixture samples were prepared in series and the compatibilizer terpolymer varying between 2% and 10% by mass was added to the samples and the effect of the added terpolymer on the miscibility was determined viscometrically, thermally, mechanically and, visually. With the addition of the compatibilizer, the two components in the mixture behave like a single polymer with a single glass transition temperature (Tg) and the mixture became compatible. As a result of viscometric experiments, it has been determined that with the added MA‐St‐MMA terpolymer, the Δb value derivated from the Krigbaum‐Wall equation which is the miscibility parameter of a mixture shifted into the positive (+) zone indicating that the two polymers became miscible. By visual analysis, it was observed that the added terpolymer reduced the opaque appearance and the phase separations of the mixture. From the tensile test, a significant improvement in impact toughness was observed. When all the data obtained were evaluated, it was determined that the synthesized MA‐St‐MMA terpolymer was a suitable compatibilizer for the mixture of PVC and PMMA.

“…The properties improvement of nanocomposites is correlated with the intercalation/exfoliation and dispersion of clay layer silicate in polymer matrix. Exfoliation of polymer in layered silicate depends on several factors such as types of clay, organic modifier, and polymer matrix [12,13]. In general, for PP/clay nanocomposites, a functionalized polymer such as PP grafted with maleic anhydride (PPgMAH) is added to improve the interfacial interaction and compatibility between PP and clays.…”

Abstract. Polypropylene (PP) and PP/organo-montmorillonite (OMMT) compounds containing antistatic agent (3, 6 and 9 wt%) were prepared using co-rotating twin screw extruder followed by injection molding. PP/OMMT composites were prepared by mixing of PP, OMMT and maleated PP (PPgMAH). The mechanical properties of PP blends and PP/OMMT nanocomposites were studied by tensile and impact tests. The effect of antistatic agent (AA) on the surface resistivity of PP and PP/OMMT nanocomposites were studied. The morphological properties of PP blends and PP/OMMT nanocomposites were characterized by using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The intercalation of OMMT silicates layer in PP nanocomposites was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The impact strength of PP blends and PP/OMMT nanocomposites did not vary significantly by the addition of antistatic agent. The tensile modulus and tensile strength of PP/OMMT nanocomposites were slightly decreased with the increasing loading of antistatic agents. From FESEM analysis, the dispersion of antistatic agent in the PP matrix can be revealed. In addition, the surface resistivity of PP/OMMT compound was affected by the loading of antistatic agent. XRD results indicated the formation of intercalated nanocomposites for PP/OMMT/AA.

Ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) and poly(styrene-co-butyl acrylate)/organo-silica nanocomposites were prepared by melt blending in a twin screw bara-bender. The structural, morphological, thermal, and mechanical properties of the prepared nanocomposites were investigated using Fourier Transform Infrared, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy, and thermal analysis (TGA and DSC). In addition, the tensile properties were identified. It was found that addition of 5% poly(styrene-cobutyl acrylate)/organo-silica to the matrix of EVA has improved the tensile strength of the nanocomposite by 29%. The thermal stability of the nanocomposites has been improved and the residue (char % at 5008C) reaches its maximum value. POLYM.
