Abstract
A family of nylons, nylon 6, 11 and 12, have been compounded with organo modified clays using a twin screw extruder that was instrumented with dielectric and optical sensors. The sensors were positioned in a slit die that was attached to the end of the extruder. Dielectric, optical transmission and fluorescence measurements provided a wealth of data that were the basis for extent of exfoliation models. The models yield quantitative exfoliation scales that characterize the amount of clay exfoliation that occurs during compounding.Proceedings Title
