Abstract
A novel nanomaterial, montmorillonite–melamine cyanurate (MMT‐MCA), was successfully synthesized, in which the number of MCA layers in between 2 MMT layers can be controlled at 1 or a very large value (over 100 nm thick). Its interdigitated crystalline structure was thoroughly characterized. The MMT‐MCA shows outstanding dispersion ability in different polymers to easily prepare MMT nanocomposites by melt blending due to the π‐π stacking exfoliation between MCA layers. The paper opens the way to the synthesis of novel interdigitated nanomaterials.
