In recent years, many researches focused on the polymer materials to study the characteristics and to enhance the mechanical properties of the nanocomposites in order to understand the factors which lead to the desired dispersion of nanoclay in the polymer matrix. The samples used in this work were prepared through melt compounding, using high-density polyethylene and organo-modified clay of montmorillonite (MMT). During manufacturing of MMT/HDPE nanocomposites, a silane modifier and polyethylene grafted with maleic anhydride (compatibilizer) were added to get good surface finish and to act as bonding agent respectively. In addition, the compatibilizer will help in attaining better intercalation. Using a Plastograph-Mixer through twin-screw extruder, the high density polyethylene and different weight percentages (0, 1, 2, 3, 4 wt. %) of MMT are mixed and subsequently the composite is produced in the form of solid material. ASTM standard specimens for various tests are produced using injection molding machine with respective dies. The prepared experimental specimens for various tests like tensile, flexural, impact and shore-hardness are tested for its respective strengths. From this investigation, it is concluded that the addition of MMT nanoclay in HDPE has significantly influenced the mechanical properties of the composites.
