Shear response of layered silicate nanocomposites
Abstract
The linear and nonlinear melt state viscoelastic properties for a series of layered silicate based intercalated polymer nanocomposites are studied to elucidate the role of highly anisotropic nanometer thick layers in altering the flow properties of such hybrids. The steady shear viscosities for the nanocomposites exhibit enhanced shear-thinning at all shear rates, with the viscosity at high shear rates being almost independent of silicate loading and comparable to that of the unfilled polymer. Further, the elasticity, as measured by the first normal stress difference, when compared at constant shear stress is surprisingly independent of the silicate loading and identical to that of the unfilled polymer. This unique combination of unfilled polymerlike viscosity and elasticity for these filled nanocomposites, is attributed to the ability of the highly-anisotropic layered silicates to be oriented in the flow direction and results in a minimal contribution by the silicate layers to both the viscosity and the elasticity of the hybrids.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
