Ultra-high enhancement in the toughness of polyethylene by exfoliated natural clay nanosheets

The full exfoliation of inorganic natural clay was engineered in a nonpolar polyethylene following a novel method without the involvement of any chemical modification to the surface of silicate layers. Tensile results showed that the toughening effect was dependent of strain rates, and the toughness...
