Accordingly, the clay in the NPC alloy is chemically associated with the polymer.
Clay was added to some of the mixtures in an amount of about 1: 1 monomer to clay or about 1: 2 monomer to clay, as shown in Table 8.

The monomer/clay mixture comprises a monomer, a cross-linking agent and clay particles.
An initiator means is used to initiate polymerization of the monomer/clay mixture, while the cross-linking agent concurrently acts to network oligomeric and polymeric species formed during polymerization to produce a networked polymer/clay alloy in the presence of the reinforcing agent.
The networked polymer/clay alloy is intimately integrated with the reinforcing agent such that, on exposure to water, the networked polymer/clay alloy swells with substantially no clay separating from the composite.

 Balls Stick, Shoes Slide: Serving Up the Physics of Tennis Courts
After winning the Australian Open on hard courts, and French Open on clay courts, Capriati lost on the grass of Wimbledon in the semi-finals.
Now a physics professor at the University of Sydney is looking into some of the peculiar properties of clay tennis courts - which may explain why players like Capriati are able to triumph on clay courts, but may stumble on grass.
"On a fast grass court, they serve as fast as possible; on clay, they drop the serve speed in order to put more spin on the ball." The result is a fast, low bounce on grass, which is hard to return, and on clay a slower, higher bounce, which is also hard to return.
