Smart polymer-clay composite nanomaterials
Paper in proceeding, 2014

We present the first phase behaviour study of South Australian NAu.1 Nontronite clays (1) exfoliated in water and their orientation response in varying magnetic fields. We also describe a novel route for the grafting of water-soluble thermo-responsive polymers onto the edges of the nanoclay platelets.
