Abstract

A series of modified halloysite nanotubes ( m-HNTs) with different generations of hyper-branched polyamidoamine ( PAMAM) were prepared via a divergent synthesis process by repeating the Michael addition of methyl acrylate ( MA) to superficial amino groups and the amidation of the resulting esters with ethylenediamine ( EDA) . The products were then characterized by means of FT-IR,XPS,XRD,TGA and TEM. The results show that ( 1)
hyper-branched PAMAM polymers are successfully grafted on the surface of HNTs,but the actual grafting rate is much less than the theoretical one due to the existing steric hindrance; ( 2) the grafting rate reaches 27. 21% after a 3. 0-generation grafting; and ( 3) the grafted hyper-branched PAMAM has no effect on the crystalline structure of HNTs.
