Properties enhancement of TPNR-MWNTs-OMMT hybrid nanocomposites by using ultrasonic treatment

The main goal of this paper was to study the effect of ultrasonic treatment time on the mechanical properties of thermoplastic natural rubber (TPNR) reinforced with hybrid MWNTs-OMMT. The intercalation of TPNR enhancement into layers of clay by increasing the d-spacing was found using X-ray diffract...
