60. Embrittlement Mechanisms of Nylon 66/Organoclay Nanocomposites. L.Chen, I.Y.Phang, S.-C.Wong, P.F.Lv, T.X.Liu*. Materials and Manufacturing Processes, 22, 153–158, 2006.
Nylon 66 nanocomposites with different smectite clay loadings were prepared by conventional melt compounding process. The fracture toughness decreases with increasing clay content, which is a direct result of reduced plastic zone size at the crack tip region. The fracture mechanisms were studied using double-notched four-point-bending (DN-4PB) technique. A constraining effect from nanoclay fi...

82. Morphological and X-ray Diffraction Studies of Crystalline Hydroxyapatite-Reinforced Polycaprolactone. Baji A, Wong SC, Liu TX,... J. Biomed. Mater. Res. B Appl. Biomater. 81B(2), 343-350, 2007.
Morphological and mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite (HAP)-reinforcedpolycaprolactone (PCL) were studied. The objective was to examine how morphological features alter the bulk mechanical properties in our laboratory-synthesized HAP-reinforced PCL. HAP crystals were synthesized by hydrolysis of mixtures of calcium and phosphate salts in the laboratory with wet chemical methods. The properties...

16. Deformation mechanisms of nanoclay-reinforced maleic anhydride-modified polypropylene. Chen L, Wong SC, Liu TX, Lu XH, He CB. J. POLYM. SCI. PART B-POLYM. PHYS. 42 (14): 2759-2768, 15 2004.
Fracture properties and deformation mechanisms of nanoclay-reinforced maleic anhydride-modified polypropylene (MAPP) were investigated. Elastic-plastic fracture mechanics was employed to characterize the toughness in light of substantial postyield deformation for the reinforced MAPP. Upon introduction of 2.5 wt % clay loading in maleated MAPP, it was observed that tensile strength, modulus, and fr...
