【 摘 要 】
Polyethylene-MMT nanocomposites were prepared by in situ polymerization methodology using TpMs*TiCl3 (1) intercalated into the gallery of Cloisite® 30B (C30B) using methylaluminoxane (MAO) as activator. From the powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis it was observed that the basal spacing of the activated organoclay changes from 1.85 nm (2θ = 4.8) to 2.18 nm (2θ = 4.0) indicating that the intercalation of the titanium catalyst into the gallery took place. The catalytic system 1/C30B/MAO was active in the ethylene polymerization under different reaction conditions. The exfoliated morphology of the PE-MMT nanocomposite was further examined and confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. The presence of exfoliated clay (5 wt.%) in the PE matrix confers better mechanical properties (flexural modulus and storage modulus) when compared with the ones displayed by the neat PE produced using exclusively 1.
