This study focuses on polyamide 6/organo-modified montmorillonite (PA6/OMMT) nanocomposites as potential liner materials, given the growing interest in enhancing the performance of type IV composite overwrapped hydrogen storage pressure vessels. The mechanical properties of PA6/OMMT composites with varying filler concentrations were investigated across a temperature range relevant to hydrogen storage conditions (−40 °C to +85 °C). Liner collapse, a critical issue caused by rapid gas discharge, was analyzed using an Ishikawa diagram to identify external and internal factors. Mechanical testing revealed that higher OMMT content generally increased stiffness, especially at elevated temperatures. The Young’s modulus and first yield strength exhibited non-linear temperature dependencies, with 1 wt. per cent OMMT content enhancing yield strength at all tested temperatures. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) indicated that OMMT improves the storage modulus, suggesting effective filler dispersion, but it also reduces the toughness and heat resistance, as evidenced by lower glass transition temperatures. This study underscores the importance of optimizing OMMT content to balance mechanical performance and thermal stability for the practical application of PA6/OMMT nanocomposites in hydrogen storage pressure vessels. |
