Effect of cationic-surfactant-modified Saudi bentonite on the thermal and flammability properties of poly(vinyl alcohol)-based nanocomposite films

In this study, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-modified Saudi bentonite nanocomposite films were prepared using the solution method. Two surfactants, cetylpyridinium chloride and tetrabutyl phosphonium bromide, were used to modify the clay after the ion-exchange process by Na+ ions. The effect of the addi...
