A type of micro-multilayer particles with a structure similar to that of nacre was prepared by poly(oxypropylene) diamine (POPD) intercalating organic montmorillonite (OMMT). The prepared particles were then blended with epoxy resin (EP) to obtain high performance EP composites. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis and contact angle analysis of the OMMT showed that the (POPD) had been successfully intercalated into the OMMT and the micro-multilayer particles were obtained as expected. Transmission electron microscope observation of the cured composites further confirmed that the micro-multilayer particles were well maintained in the EP network. The tensile and bending strength and glass transition temperature of the OMMT/EP composites were all increased compared with those of the EP. All these showed that the addition of the OMMT was an effective way to obtain high performance EP composites.

通过聚（氧丙烯）二胺（POPD）插层有机蒙脱土（OMMT），制备了一种结构类似于珍珠母的微多层颗粒。然后将制备的颗粒与环氧树脂（EP）共混以获得高性能的EP复合材料。OMMT的傅里叶变换红外光谱，X射线衍射，热重分析和接触角分析表明（POPD）已成功插入OMMT中，并按预期获得了微多层颗粒。透射电子显微镜对固化的复合材料的观察进一步证实了微多层颗粒被很好地保持在EP网络中。与EP相比，OMMT / EP复合材料的拉伸强度，弯曲强度和玻璃化转变温度均增加。
