clay has fewer degrees of oscillatory motion at heating due to the limited interlayer
space and the formation of the abundant intermolecular bonds between the polymeric
chain and the clay surface. And the best result is obtained at 2–3 wt% content of the
organoclay added to the polymer.

optimal amount of organoclay of 3 wt%. The coke remnant at 600°C again increases
with the rising organoclay content, see Table 3.
Regarding the change in the temperature of the destruction in the cases of PET and
PBT versus the organoclay content one ...
