Polyamide 6 (PA6)/clay nanocomposites, based on organo-modified and pristine (i.e. purified but non-modified) montmorillonite, were prepared using a water-assisted extrusion process based on the injection of water during extrusion. The formation of a single PA6/water phase during extrusion (shown by High Pressure Differential Scanning Calorimetry (HPDSC)) improves the clay dispersion, decreases the PA6 melting temperature by 66 degrees C (so-called cryoscopic effect), and thus prevents the polymer matrix degradation during processing. This process enables the compounding of pristine clay-based nanocomposites whose dispersion state, thermal and mechanical performances are close to what is generally reported for organo-modified montmorillonite-based nanocomposites. Advantage was taken of water-assisted extrusion to optimize the clay dispersion by increasing shear rate and of the cryoscopic effect to limit the degradation by decreasing the processing temperature. Using these conditions PA6/pristine clay nanocomposites properties are similar to those of more conventional PA6/organomodified clay nanocomposites. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
