Abstract
Polyamide 6 and pristine montmorillonite have been melt blended in an extruder and water was injected into the melt in order to produce nanocomposites. The pristine clay was found to be exfoliated and dispersed homogenously in the nanocomposites. A mechanism explaining the formation of such nanocomposites is presented.
