## Abstract In this work, polypropylene/clay nanocomposites with 0.5, 1, 3, and 5 wt % of montmorillonite (MMT) (unmodified clay) were prepared by intensive mixing at 50 rpm and 10 min of mixing. For the highest clay content (5 wt %), the initial materials or the processing conditions were changed
## Abstract Nanocomposites of polypropylene with organically modified clays were compounded in a twinβscrew extruder by a twoβstep melt compounding of three components, i.e., polypropylene, maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP__g__MA), and organically modified clay. The effect of PP__g__MA co
