Nanofillers: Optimization of the Processing Parameters for a Better Dispersion using 1D-Simulation
Nanoclay are nano-sized particles of layered mineral silicates. They are used as nanofillers to mechanically reinforce thermoplastic resins. The improvement of composite properties depends on the nanofillers dispersion inside the polymer matrix which is reached by melt processing. Twin-screw extrusion, as traditionally used in industrial compounding, is the preferred method for processing thermoplastic/based composites. The objective of this […]
