Experimental study of the Effect of Nanoclay Modifier on Tensile and Bending Module of Polyamide/Nano Clay Nanocomposite

The purpose of this paper is the study of tensile and bending behavior of polyamide with nano clay by different modifier and corrections in the work condition. Many previous studies about behavior mechanical had been done in standardize condition or after dried samples. However result of this research is not proper for applied design. In this research polyamide is mixed with three kinds of nano clay, By the way of melt intercalated with 9, 7, 5, 3, 1 percents. The samples were tested by X-ray diffraction, for clarifying nano composite morphology. After that tensile and bending tests were done on standard samples. Results show that mechanical property can be improved by added any kind of nano clay to polyamide. Nanocomposites have exfoliated structure if nano clay had more compatibility to polyamide. Moduli tensile and bending were improved with increase nano clay concentration. Although CL30B have best exfoliated structure therefore has most modules in beading and tensile.
