Organic polymer-clay interactions and intercalation of kaolinite /

The objectives of this research were (1) to study the bonding mechanisms of polyacrylamides (PAMs) and nonionic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) surfactants on clay minerals and to characterize the surface properties of polymer-clay complexes and (2) to test a hypothesis that structural stress is a contro...
