A series of polyamide 6/polypropylene (PA6/PP) blends and nanocompo-sites containing 4 wt% of organophilic modified montmorillonite (MMT) were designed and prepared by melt compounding followed by injection molding. Maleicanhydride polyethylene octene elastomer (POEgMAH) was used as impact modifier...
