    Halloysite Nanotube Loaded Polyamide Nanocomposites: Structural, Morphological, Mechanical, Thermal and Processing Behaviors

    In this study, the polyamide 6 (PA) matrix was reinforced with the purified, fine ground and amino-silane treated halloysite nanotubes (HNT) at different concentrations. The preparation of composites was carried out using a lab-scale twin-screw micro-compounder with loading ratios at 0.5, 1, 3, and 20% by weight, and the test samples were prepared by the injection-molding process. According to mechanical test results, additions of HNT to the PA matrix caused slight improvements in tensile strength and Youngs' modulus parameters. The optimum concentrations for all of the additives used were estimated by comparison of mechanical test data. The addition of aminosilane-modified HNT resulted in a higher impact performance at high loading levels up to 3% concentrations. Further addition of HNT caused a reduction in the mechanical parameters of composites. Thermal studies revealed that the glass transition temperature of PA shifted to higher values after HNT mineral inclusions. Thermo-mechanical results showed that storage moduli of PA exhibited improvement with an increase in HNT content. The distributions of HNT clay into the PA phase were visualized with SEM images. Based on these observations, a high level of dispersion homogeneity was achieved for lower filling ratios. According to melt-flow and force measurements, composites filled with 20% of HNT displayed a remarkable increase in exerted force during melt-blending. © 2023 Author(s).

    Influence of Carbon Nanotube Inclusions To Electrical, Thermal, Physical and Mechanical Behaviors of Carbon-Fiber Abs Composites
    (Springer, 2022) Akar, Alinda Öykü; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Tirkeş, Seha; Tayfun, Ümit; Hacıvelioğlu, Ferda; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) terpolymer was compounded with short carbon fiber (CF) and carbon nanotube (CNT) using a micro-extruder followed by the injection molding process. Composite samples were fabricated with loading ratios of 20 wt.% CF and 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 wt.% of CNT. Mechanical, electrical, thermo-mechanical, thermal, melt-flow, and structural investigations of ABS-based composites were conducted by performing tensile, impact, hardness, and wear tests, conductive atomic force microscopy (AFM), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), melt flow rate test (MFR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterization techniques, respectively. According to mechanical test data of resultant composites including tensile and impact test findings, CNT additions led to the remarkable increase in tensile strength and impact resistance for CF reinforced ABS composites. The formation of synergy between CNT nanoparticles and CF was confirmed by electrical conduction results. The conductive path in ABS/CF composite system was achieved by the incorporation of CNT with different loading levels. SEM micrographs of composites proved that CNT nanoparticles exhibited homogeneous dispersion into ABS matrix for lower loadings. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].
