dc.description DATA AVAILABILITY STATEMENT : Data available on request from the authors. en_US
dc.description.abstract The effect of various clays nanofillers on the photo-oxidation of polyamide 11 (PA11) has been investigated by accelerated ultraviolet (UV) test up to 780 h. Organo-modified montmorillonite, halloysite nanotubes, and sepiolite were selected and incorporated separately to PA11 at 5 wt.%. The samples were prepared by melt compounding. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) data showed a linear increase of carbonyl index (CI) in the first 360 h of exposure indicating a rapid oxidation of all samples without any induction period. Further, the nanocomposite samples exhibit faster oxidation kinetics than PA11, being however less pronounced for PA11/sepiolite. This is consistent with both the yellowing index (YI) evolution determined by UV–Vis spectroscopy and also the onset oxidation temperature (OOT) determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). en_US
