Polyamide 11‐based bionanocomposites were prepared by melt compounding with 10 wt% clays of different chemistry and morphology. This included vermiculite nanoflakes obtained by consecutive thermal and ultrasonic exfoliation ...
Sub-micron thick flakes were obtained by sonication of vermiculite that was first exfoliated by either
thermal shock or chemical treatment with hydrogen peroxide. Dimer fatty acid polyamide
nanocomposites with a mixed ...

Polyamide bio-nanocomposites were successfully prepared using a surfactant-free
approach. The clay morphology was fixed by dispersing the ammonium ion-exchanged clay
in acetic acid. This was mixed with an acetic acid ...
