Vermiculite Starch-based Nanocomposites and Applications
Nadia Akram, Khawaja Taimoor Rashid, Tanzeel Munawar, Muhammad Usman, Muhammad Saeed
Nowadays, the demand of biodegradable as well as biocompatible nanocomposites-based products is growing all over the world. In this perspective, a little effort is done in terms of exploring the effectiveness of environment friendly vermiculite starch-based nanocomposites. Both the constituents are naturally occurring so they are considered as low-cost materials. Different methods such as solution casting, melt solution blending as well as in-situ polymerization approaches are used for the fabrication of vermiculite starch-based nanocomposites. Functional characterization of nanocomposites can be investigated in terms of XRD, SEM, FTIR, TGA, DSC as well as by some mechanical testing methods. The resultant nanocomposites give attractive solutions in the subject of wastewater treatment and food packaging additionally may also exhibits improved fire properties that are resistive.
