The water absorption of montmorillonite was studied using TGA and FTIR, and a removal method through boiling with toluene was investigated. PU/MMT was synthesized and its morphology, thermal dynamic mechanical properties and tensile behaviour were investigated by WAXD, FTIR, DMTA and Instron techniques. We find that, compared with the PU matrix, the intercalated PU/MMT nanocomposite was reinforced and toughened by the addition of nanometer‐size MMT layers.
