Initially, pristine NieAl LDH was synthesized via the co-precipitation technique and was subsequently treated using sodium dodecyl sulfate to obtain organo-functionalized NieAl LDH (ONieAl LDH). PS nanocomposites were fabricated by melt interca-lation using a twin screw extruder in presence of ONieAl LDH nanofiller (1, 3, 5, and 7 wt.%). The PS nanocomposites were characterized for their structural, thermal and mechanical properties. The dispersion and morphology of the obtained PS nanocomposites were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Mechanical and thermal properties of the PS nanocomposites as a function of LDH content were examined by tensile tests, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The XRD and TEM results revealed the formation of an exfoliated structure of the PS nanocomposite with 1 wt.% ONieAl LDH loading. The maximum im-provements of the mechanical and thermal properties of the nanocomposites with ONieAl LDH loading over pristine PS included tensile strength¼34.5% (1 wt.%), thermal decomposition temperatures (T15%)-27.4C (7 wt.%), and glass transition temperature (Tg)-4.3C (7 wt.%). The PS nanocomposites possessed higher mechanical strength and thermal degradation resistance compared to the pristine PS. The activation energy (Ea) and reaction mechanismwith respect to thermal degradation of the pristine PS and its nanocomposites were evaluated by the Coats-Redfern and Criado model, respectively. 2017-08-23T08:50:56Z 2017-08-23T08:50:56Z 2017 Article 2468-2284 http://repository.vnu.edu.vn/handle/VNU_123/58009 other application/pdf H. : ĐHQGHN
