4. Properties Enhancements
The aim for the addition of nanofillers to the polymers
is to improve the polymer properties and to produce the
polymer nanocomposites with desired properties. Because
of the low price, availability, high aspect ratio as well as
desirable nanostructure and interfacial interactions, clays
can provide dramatic and adjustable improved properties
at very lower loadings which help to the more remaining
of polymer original useful properties. In this section the
various improved properties of polymer nanocomposites
are discussed.
