Nanocomposites based on low density polyethylene, containing of 3 or 6 wt.% of organo-modified montmorillonite nanoclay (MMT-ODA) and maleic anhydride grafted low density polyethylene as a compatibilizer were prepared by melt mixing and characterized. Exfoliation of silicate layers was achieved, as confirmed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The compatibilized nanocomposites exhibit improved thermal stability in air as compared to neat polyethylene and nonexfoliated MMT-ODA composite.
