In this research, PVA/bentonite nanocomposite films were prepared based on the presence or absence of modification of nano-clay(bentonite) a SUPERGEL® product, modification conditions and content, and the structural variation of the prepared PVA/bentonite nanocomposite films were examined. The effect of variations in the internal structure of the nanocomposite on mechanical and thermal properties was investigated. As a result of evaluating the thermal characteristics of the PVA/bentonite nanocomposite film based on the concentration of the modified bentonite, it was verified that the thermal characteristics and stability were improved because of interaction between the polymer and the modified nan Keywords bentonite, nano-clay, modification, poly(vinyl alcohol), solution casting Download   Reference http://koreascience.or.kr/journal/OSGGBT.page?&lang=ko
