Figure 4. Macrodispersion of organo-modified MMT in PVC/MMT composite.

Figure 4

(a) Cross-sectional TEM micrograph of PVC/TPE-DTAB-modified MMT (5 wt%) composite; the inset showed TEM image of TPE-DTAB-modified MMT. Scale bar, 1 μm. (b) Fluorescence microscopy image (600 × 600 μm2) of PVC/TPE-DTAB-modified MMT (5 wt%) composite. (c) 3D representation of TPE-DTAB-modified MMT dispersion (cyan parts) in PVC matrix. All fluorescence microscopy images were taken with a 405-nm laser.
