• Intercalated linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/clay nanocomposites prepared with oxidized polyethylene as a new type compatibilizer: Structural, mechanical and barrier properties (2007, background): “M A C lammonium cations between the clay layers is first caused by decomposition by Hoffmann elimination reactions which was previously reported in detail for other nanocomposites as well [46–48] and its decomposition products catalyze the degradation of the polymer matrix.”
• Polymer/layered silicate (clay) nanocomposites: An overview of flame retardancy (2010, background): “For instance, in the case of PA6 nanocomposites, interchain aminolysis/acidolysis reactions (non-radical pathway) are facilitated, allowing the evolution of decomposition products with molecular mass greater than that of caprolactam, the principal degradation product of the pure polymer [78,79].”
