Effect of sepiolite nanoparticles on the properties of novel poly(sulfone ether imide)
A new poly(sulfone ether imide) was prepared, and related nanocomposites were produced through introduction of sepiolite nanoparticles into the matrix of polymer. Inherent viscosity, thermal and mechanical features of pristine poly(sulfone ether imide), and nanocomposite samples were evaluated and c...

Summary: | A new poly(sulfone ether imide) was prepared, and related nanocomposites were produced through introduction of sepiolite nanoparticles into the matrix of polymer. Inherent viscosity, thermal and mechanical features of pristine poly(sulfone ether imide), and nanocomposite samples were evaluated and compared. The crystallinity was also investigated. Dispersion and distribution behaviors of nanocomposite samples and cross-sectional morphology of nanocomposite films were also studied. Also, the optimized amounts of sepiolite nanoparticles in the matrix of polymer were determined by microscopic techniques (scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope). By introduction of 3 wt% of sepiolite, superior thermal and mechanical properties were observed. |
