Abstract

Abstract Based on the FTIR spectral changes, the miscibility of some nanocomposites based on starch, polyvinyl alcohol and treated multilayered silicate, was qualitatively estimated. The FTIR spectroscopy provide evident gross/small spectral changes as well as appreciable spectral shifts mainly in those spectral range that defines hydroxyl O-H vibrations (3600- 3000 cm -1 ), water absorbtion (1800 - 1500 cm -1 ) , the morphological order degree and the interaction with multilayered silicate and (1192 - 950 cm -1 ). Based on the observed spectral modifications it can be estimate that high miscibility do exist between the components of the studied nanocomposites.
