The effects of polymerisable organoclays on photopolymerisation behaviour and ultimate properties of thiol-ene nanocomposite systems

摘要

It is well known that incorporation of exfoliated clays into polymer matrices can significantly improve mechanical and barrier properties, thermal stability and chemical resistance. This paper focuses on the effect of clays bearing reactive groups on nanocomposite film properties and their effect on both oxygen inhibition and volume shrinkage.
