Organically modified layered silicates (OLS) with high thermal stability are critical for synthesis and processing of polymer layered silicate nanocomposites (PLSN). In the current study, the non-oxidative thermal degradation chemistry of alkyl and aryl quaternary phosphonium-modified montmorillonites (P-MMT) was examined using TGA combined with pyrolysis/GC-MS. The morphology evolution at elevated temperature was investigated using in-situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The onset decomposition temperature via TGA of these P-MMTs ranged from 190 to 230 degreesC. The initial degradation of the alkyl P-MMTs follows potentially two reaction pathways - beta-elimination [E-beta] and nucleophilic displacement at phosphorus [SN(P)] - reflecting the multiple environments of the surfactant in the silicate. Aryl P-MMT decomposition proceeds via either a reductive elimination through a five-coordinate intermediate or radical generation through homologous cleavage of the P-phenyl bond. Overall, the interlayer environment of the montmorillonite has a more severe effect on stability of the phosphonium surfactant than previously reported for ammonium-modified montmorillonite (N-MMT). Nonetheless, the overall thermal stability of P-MMT is higher than that of N-MMT. These observations indicate that, in addition to their conventional purpose as stabilizers, phosphonium salts offer unique opportunities for melting processing polymer layered silicate nanocomposites.
