Preparation and Characterization of Modified Clay Reinforced Poly (Vinylidene Fluoride) Nanocomposites

Poly (Vinylidene halide (PVDF) nanocomposite films with changed nanoclay have play a task as an efficient material having improved electrical, mechanical and stuff properties compared to PVDF. The interest in PVDF nanocomposites with nanoclay as filler is possess giant industrial and medical specialty applications. to induce PVDF composites films with increased electrical, mechanical and stuff properties. we've got used needle formed clay as reinforcement agents within the gift study. For well dispersion of clay in PVDF matrix, the surface of clay was changed with organic moiety having higher interaction with PVDF chains. For this purpose, the surface of meerschaum clay was changed with amidoxime by a chemical approach. The winning preparation and future affixation of changed clay into the chemical compound matrix were confirmed by completely different characterization techniques like FTIR, XRD and SEM. Films of PVDF with amidoxime changed meerschaum clay were ready in varied weight p.c loading of the reinforcement. Well candied electro-active beta part of PVDF nanocomposites films were obtained upon loading with changed meerschaum clay. This was confirmed from FTIR, XRD information of the ensuing PVDF nanocomposites with changed clay.
