Nanocomposites of polypropylene (PP) were prepared by melt mixing using maleic anhydride modified polypropylene (PPg) and different organophilic montmorillonites (OMMT). The selected organo-modified clays differ in their initial particle size, amount and type of surfactant and/or their cation-exchange capacity. All composites have 80, 15 and 5 wt% of PP, PPg and OMMT, respectively. The materials were characterized using TGA, XRD, SEM and rotational rheometry. Cloisite 15A, Cloisite 93A, Nanomer 144 and a bentonite modified with octadecylammonium (B18) display intercalation and exfoliation after mixing and annealing and produce nanocomposites with different degrees of 'solid-like' theological behavior. The composites based in Cloisite 15A and Nanomer 144, which use the same intercalant, show very similar phase structure and theological response, regardless of the origin and initial characteristics of the clays. These nanocomposites are the most affected by the thermal history during theological characterization in the molten state. On the other hand, Cloisite 10A and Cloisite 30B display collapse of the silicate layers after compounding with no evidence of exfoliation. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
