Huong N.T.P., Crosky A., Qi B., Kelly D., Li D.C., The University of New South Wales, AU

Exfoliated nanocomposites based on tetraglycidyldiamino diphenylmethane (TGDDM) cured by diethyltoluene diamine (DETDA) reinforced with 1-20 phr of a commercial nanoclay (I30E) were prepared. The effect of the nanoclay content on the compressive modulus of the [...]
