We reported a solvent‐free nanofluid based on MnSn(OH) 6 crystallite with thread‐like morphology through sulfuric‐acid‐terminated organosilanes as corona and polyether amine as canopy. The resultant is characterized by various analytical techniques and shows excellent solubility, good dispersity, improved processability and fluidity at room temperature in the absence of any solvents, which offer great potential in applications such as plasticizers with effects of toughening and reinforcement in nanocomposites. In addition, as a kind of plasticizer, it can also improve the T g of its nanocomposites. These advantages of the flexible nanoscale thread of MnSn(OH) 6 crystallite make it can be easily applied on the fabrication of high performance of nanocomposites.
