- Abstract
- Two polyester nanocomposites were synthesized, one with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and the other with poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT), by using organoclay. The in-situ interlayer polymerization method was used to disperse the organoclay in polyesters at different organoclay contents and at different draw ratios to produce monofilaments. The thermal stability and tensile mechanical properties increased with increasing organoclay content at a DR=1 . However, the values of the tensile mechanical properties of the hybrid fibers decreased with increasing DR. The reinforcing effects of the organoclay of the PET hybrid fibers were higher than those of the PTT hybrid fibers.
