Abstract:
1. A process for obtaining the nanocomposite comprising as components polymers, carbon nanotubes and layered silicate nanoparticles, said process comprising providing the polymers, the carbon nanotubes, the layered silicate nanoparticles, and if necessary the microfiller, and mixing said different components in adequate conditions so as to obtain a homogenous dispersion, wherein the step of providing the carbon nanotubes comprises the step of producing said carbon nanotubes on a M/MgO catalyst, wherein M is selected from the group consisting of Co, Fe, Ni, Mo or their mixtures, and M represents 0.1–50 wt % of the catalyst, the MgO being prepared in situ from metallic magnesium.
