Influence of nanoclay amount on surface properties of the nanocomposites was investigated using
Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), contact angle
measurement, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Transmission spectroscopy (TS).
Polypropylene based nanocomposites containing various loads of nanoclay were prepared by melt
compounding. X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterized the dispersion of nanoclay in polymer
matrix. AFM and SEM Studies have shown increased in surface roughness by raising the amount
of nanoclay. Contact angle measurements of the resultant nanocomposites also shown
improvement in wettability related to disperse part of surface tension.
