What is it about?
Specially Treated Nanoclay not only improves mechanical properties such as Flexural strength,Tensile strength,Hardness but also it builds functional characteristics such as Fire retardancy,Shape memory properties etc.The improvement in the Glass transition temperature ,degradation temperature and the strength aspects are studied along with reaction kinetics.

Why is it important?
Increase in Tensile strength compared to pure polyurethane pipelines and also the the leakage and corrosion resistance problems avoided.Polyurethane gives better shock resistance and Thermal insulation
Perspectives
Dimethyl dialkyl amine treated clay improves several fuctional properties and hence can be used in offshore pipelines
