It is found that the commercialization of nylon 66/Cloisite 93A nanocomposite by applying melt intercalation is possible in the composite production facilities of the pilot scale which has been generalized today. The strength and modulus under tensile and flexural stress have been improved with the introduction of Cloisite 93A in nylon 66. Furthermore, it is found through the analysis of morphologic and crystallization behavior that the elements such as content of Cloisite 93A, viscosity of nylon 66 and the crystallization behavior have significantly influences on the characteristics of nanocomposite.

현재 일반화되어 있는 pilot scale의 복합체 생산설비에서 용융 삽입법으로 nylon 66/Cloisite 93A 나노복합체의 상용화 가능성을 확인하였으며, nylon 66에 Cloisite 93A 도입으로 인장 및 굴곡응력에 대한 강도와 탄성률이 향상되었고, 형태학적 및 결정화 거동의 분석을 통해 Cloisite 93A 함량, nylon 66 점도 및 그에 따른 결정화 거동이 주요 영향요소임을 확인하였다.
