The polymeric materials were dry-blended and then
added to the mixing chamber of a Brabender internal
mixer, Germany, with roller type rotors at temperature
of 230˚C and rotor speed of 60rpm. Organoclay was
added after 2.5 min and mixing continued up to 10
min. Blend composition selected as 90/10, 80/20
and 70/30 (w/w) of PA6/EB-g-MAH and organoclay
concentration selected as 0, 2 and 5 phr. Formulation
and notation of the samples are reported in Table 2.
