## Abstract Summary: A novel method was used to prepare poly(propylene)/montmorillonite/calcium carbonate nanocomposites by melt‐mixing, using pristine montmorillonite (MMT), hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (C16), calcium carbonate (CaCO~3~) and a matrix in a twin‐screw extruder. Two different s

## Abstract **Summary:** This paper investigates the mechanical properties of the epoxy–organoclay nanocomposites by the nanoindentation technique. The nanocomposites were prepared by in situ polymerization and a mixture of exfoliated and intercalated composites structure was obtained as evidenced
Cellulose powder was found to be a substrate favoring the deposition of calcite crystals from stable supersaturated solutions at pH 8.50 and at 25 • C. Kinetic analysis of the initial rates showed that they were proportional with the relative supersaturation with respect to calcite. Analysis of the
## Abstract Calcium carbonate/low‐density‐polyethylene (LDPE) nanocomposites have been prepared by melting blend with twin‐screw extruder. The mechanical properties of composites and the dispersion of the nanoparticles were studied. The reinforcement mechanism was discussed. The results show that n
## Abstract Novel protein‐based nanocomposites were well prepared by __in vivo__ synthesis and co‐precipitation of soy protein isolate (SPI) with calcium carbonate (CaCO~3~) in an aqueous solution. The resultant CaCO~3~ in the nanocomposites was identified as calcite‐ and aragonite‐type, respective
