A super absorbent resin (SAR) of acrylic acid (AA)/acrylamide (AM) /organic montmorillonite (OMMT) composite was synthesized by aqueous solution polymerization. This process was carried out under precision microwave organic synthesis system and its single-mode focusing microwave irradiation technology was studied. The montmorillonite (MMT) was modified by treating with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide.The characteristics of the obtained SAR, natural and modified montmorillonite were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the intercalation is successful, the CTAB as a organic modifier introuduced into lattice layers of montmorillonite by cation-exchange reaction.The SAR have higher liquid absorbency rate.

This process was carried out under precision microwave organic synthesis system and its single-mode focusing microwave irradiation technology was studied. The montmorillonite (MMT) was modified by treating with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. Moreover, the factors that effect on liquid absorbency rate of the SAR were discussed, such as neutralization degree (ND) of AA, microwave irradiation time, microwave irradiation power and the dosage of the OMMT. It gave the best liquid absorbency rate (1520g.g-1 and 165g.g-1 in purified water and 0.9wt% NaCl solution, respectively).

In this paper,the organo-montmorillonite (OMMT) was prepared by cation exchange reaction, using sodium montmorillonite (Na+-MMT) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTAB) as all intercalation agent under precision microwave organic synthesis system. The structure of the montmorillonite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD)、infrared spectrum (IR)、thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the intercalation is successful, the CTAB as a organic modifier introuduced into lattice layers of montmorillonite by cation-exchange reaction and the surface morphology of OMMT is complete exfoliation, the distance between the lattice layers of montmorillonite has been greatly increased.

Optical–grade polycarbonate (PC) was separated from optical disks by a chemical approach and used to prepare nanocomposite to make full use of the wasted polymers. A quaternary ammonium-modified montmorillonite (organic montmorillonite, OMMT) was chosen as a modifier and an auxiliary functional resin (CBT160) was utilized to exfoliate the layers of montmorillonite. The characterization results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for PC/ OMMT (5wt %) revealed that an exfoliation structure of the nanocomposite was obtained. The mechanical measurements show a great increase in tensile strength and Izod impact strength of PC/ OMMT nanocomposite compared with the recycled optical–grade PC.

AbstractA new cyclotriphosphazene, 2,2,4,4,6,6-hexakis (o-tolylamono)-1,3,5,2λ5,4λ5,6λ5-triazatriphosphinine (MPAP), was prepared using microwave irradiation and identified by elemental analysis, FT-IR, Raman, 31P NMR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the crystal, in addition to hydrogen bonds, the network is further stabilized by inter- and intramolecular π–π stacking interactions between aromatic rings.

AbstractCopper oxide and cobalt oxide (Co3O4, CuO) nanocrystals (NCs) have been successfully prepared using microwave irradiation. The obtained powders of the nanocrystals (NCs) were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric (TGA) analysis and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The obtained results confirm the presence of both nanooxides which have been produced during chemical precipitation using microwave irradiation. TEM micrographs have shown that the obtained nanocrystals are characterized by high dispersion and narrow size distribution. The results of X-ray diffraction confirmed those obtained from the transmission electron microscope. Optical absorption analysis indicated the direct band gap for both kinds of the nanocrystals.

In this paper, the diphenyl methane diisocyanate (MDI) was used to modify montmorillonoid (MMT) and got the organic montmorillonite (OMMT), which was used with the monomers of PET by in situ polymerization method to prepare PET/MMT nanocomposition. The OMMT was analyzed by the X ray diffraction (XRD) to test the change of the spacing layer. Dispersion of MMT in the PET/MMT nanocomposites were studied with XRD and SEM and by means of thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) on the thermal stability of PET/MMT nanocomposites. The results showed that, MDI modified MMT successfully, and the compatibility of MMT and PET was increased .

In this paper, we report the preparation of polyethylene composites with organically modified montmorillonite. Three different Na+-montmorillonites were modified in order to obtain organoclays and two grades of high-density polyethylene were used as composite matrices. All composites were prepared by melt blending, and their physical and mechanical properties were thoroughly characterized. The extent of clay platelet exfoliation in the composites was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Mechanical properties under static and impact conditions were evaluated to assess the influence of the reinforcement on the properties of polyethylene.

Poly(amic acid) (PAA)–clay nacrelike composite films have been prepared by electrophoretic deposition of an emulsion of PAA, which was synthesized from pyromellitic dianhydride and 4,4′-dianminodiphenyl ether (ODA), containing various loadings of ODA-modified montmorillonite (MMT). The layered silicate was intercalated through reacting with PAA, and the ordered layered assembly of the PAA–MMT composite films was successfully accomplished, as conformed by Fourier transform infrared analysis and x-ray diffraction. The structural characterization of the films was supported by scanning electron microscopy, which displayed an ordered layered structure. The thermogravimetric analysis showed the content of the ODA-modified clay in PAA–MMT composite films that changed from 14.3 to 32.1 wt% and the improved thermal properties of the composite films. The mechanical properties of the composites were measured by tensile test. It was found that the modulus and strength of the composite films were greatly improved compared to those of the pure polymer film. An increment of about 155% in the modulus and 40% in the tensile strength were obtained from the composite films.

The aqueous solution polymerization of acrylic acid, acrylamide and oxidized starch under single mode microwave irradiation was studied, and a polymer suppressant was synthesized. The factors that influence on performance of the polymer suppressant were discussed, including microwave irradiation time, neutralization degree of acrylic acid (AA), the dosage of oxidized starch. The polymer suppressant was characterized by IR and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results indicated that the optimal synthetic conditions are as follows: microwave irradiation power, 300 W; radiation time, 2 mins; 50% neutralization degree of the AA; m(AA) : m(AM) : m(oxidized starch)= 5.0 : 3.3 : 3.4, weight ratio initiator in the feed is 0.4%, respectively.

Thermoplastic vulcanizates nanocomposites based on polypropylene (PP) and ethylene–propylene-diene terpolymer rubber (EPDM) blends reinforced with organoclay modified montmorillonite have been prepared via melt intercalation. The silicate layers of the clay were intercalated and dispersed at a nanometer level in the matrix blends. The nanocomposites exhibit improved mechanical properties, this effect being more evident at high EPDM contents in the blend (above 80%). This behavior is attributed to the fact that the EPDM chains are more easily inserted into the galleries silicate, giving rise to a more intercalated structure as was observed by X-ray diffraction.
