Rubber toughened nanocomposites consisting of ternary blends of polyamide 6 (PA 6), maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene octene (POEgMAH) and organically modified montmorillonite (organoclay) were prepared by melt compounding followed by injection moulding. The mechanical properties and morphology...
