Synthesis of Nanocomposite Based on Poly(Lactic Acid) and Montmorillonite by In Situ Polycondensation

摘要

In the present work, a method of synthesis of polymer nanocomposite based on poly(lactic acid) and layered alumosilicate montmorillonite by in situ polycondensation is described. At reaction temperatures of 160-200°С and catalyst concentration from 0 up to 5 ppt, the samples of composite materials containing 0.5-3 wt % of montmorillonite were synthesized. The composite material is characterized by an exfoliated structure of alumosilicate and a complex of enhanced physicochemical properties.
