Actually my doubt was how to make a simulation box from two structure files
i.e. how do i keep the clay and poymer boxes close to each other to run
energy minimization


Consider the following:

The logic holds for any interfacial or inhomogeneous system. Place whatever species you want, wherever you want them in the box, with editconf -center, -translate, -rotate, etc as necessary.

The concepts of "top" and "bottom" are irrelevant in a periodic system.
  You can
position anything within the unit cell wherever you like with editconf
-center.
