Notes:
Natural clay minerals are ideal nanofillers for polymer materials and have been attractedtremendous research and development interests in the past decade. The manufacture of claynanofillers relies largely on the exfoliation of clay particle into individual clay platelets. Thus,understanding the interlayer swelling of clay minerals upon the adsorption of surfactants is importantto the fabrication and design of polymer nanocomposites. This paper reports our recent experimentaland theoretical studies on a variety of organoclays that show a linear relationship between the increaseof d-spacing and the mass ratio between organic and clay
