Abstract
- Bismaleimide nanocomposites were prepared using cloisite 15a (1,2,3,4,5,7 and 9Â wt%).
- From FTIR, cloisite 15a interacts with the imide and ether parts of bismaleimide.
- Microcomposites are formed at higher levels of clay loading.
- Trend in variation of apparent Ea for degradation depends on the clay loading.
- The Ea values are attributed to the formation of CO, CO2, amine and isocyanate.
