Applied Minerals Inc. has completed trials incorporating its Halloysite Clay as a drop-in additive for reinforcement in polymer composites. As a result of these trials, the Company has filed a Provisiional Patent Application with the USPTO for a novel method of producing a halloysite-polymer composition that
(i) eliminates two costly steps typically used in the compounding process and
(ii) produces improved properties to other polymer composites reinforced with
(a) Halloysite Nanotubes utilizing other composition methods,
(b) chemically treated MMT Organo/Nanoclay and
(c) certain traditional fillers.
