Study of Morphology Membrane of Polymeric Nanocomposites Obtained by Phases Inversion

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this work, were obtained nanocomposite membranes polyamide66/Paraíba bentonite clay, treated with a quaternary ammonium salt in order to make it organophilic. The membranes were prepared as thin films using the technique of phase inversion from the nanocomposites obtained by solution. The membranes were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetry (TG) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). By means of X-ray diffractogram, it was revealed that the membranes remained organically treated clay presented exfoliated and/or partially exfoliated structure. From curves of DSC and TG, it was observed that membrane of PA66 with 3% w/w of with treatment clay showed higher thermal stability compared with the same content of clay without treatment. From the SEM photomicrographs, there was a selective layer (skin filter) on top and one porous layer at the bottom of all membranes studied. Moreover, it was verified that the presence of clay provided a significant structural modification in the membranes of polymer nanocomposites.
