| dc.description.abstract | In previous part of this work factors influencing the thermal stability of polymer nanocomposite materials were indicated, such as chemical constitution of organic modifier, filler content, nanocomposites’ structure and the processing- dependent degree of homogenization of nanofiller, were presented. In this part the basic changes in thermal behaviour of different polymeric matrixes (e.g. polyolefins, polyamides, poly(vinyl chloride) and styrene-containing polymers) upon addition of montmorillonite have been described. Brief description of the kinetics of the decomposition process in inert and oxidative environment, as well as analysis of volatile and condensed products of degradation, have also been presente | en_UK |
