Abstract

Polymer/layered silicate nanocomposites bring about an enhancement of many properties for polymers. They have attached considerable attention since they have the capacity to generate new polymer properties. The performance improvement greatly depended on the distribution and dispersion of layers of the silicates in the polymer matrix. This chapter aims to highlight on the recent developments in preparation and characterization of polystyrene/layered silicate nanocomposites, and also the effect of different parameters such as type of clay, clay modifiers, and preparation methods on final properties of polystyrene nanocomposites will be reviewed.
