Abstract

Here we present a study on the polypropylene/montmorillonite interaction based on x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning transmission x-ray microscopy (STXM) measurements, which provides a complete picture of the intercalation and exfoliation processes taking place.
