Response surface analysis of structural, mechanical, and permeability properties of polyethylene/Na+-montmorillonite composites, prepared by slurry-fed melt intercalation

Samples were produced by injecting Na+-montmorillonite (Na+-MMT) slurry into a co-rotating twin-screw extruder. Na+-MMT was modified inside the extruder, in an in-situ process, and blended with the LDPE/LLDPE in melt state. Three different types of alkyl ammonium salt (ALAMS) were used as modifier t...
