This book focuses on effective ways to combine improved mechanical and physical properties in polymers in order to form new, performance-enhanced composite materials. It presents recent research and results not available elsewhere by scientists at the vanguard of their specialties. Reflecting the continuing study of mechanisms elucidating the structure-function relationship of nanostructured polymers and nanocomposites, topics include nanoparticle-filled thermoplastic polymers,...
More DescriptionThis book focuses on effective ways to combine improved mechanical and physical properties in polymers in order to form new, performance-enhanced composite materials. It presents recent research and results not available elsewhere by scientists at the vanguard of their specialties. Reflecting the continuing study of mechanisms elucidating the structure-function relationship of nanostructured polymers and nanocomposites, topics include nanoparticle-filled thermoplastic polymers, applications of carbon nanotube and nanofiber reinforced polymer systems, alternative methods of polymer modification based on micro- and nanolayered polymers, and hot compaction of oriented fibers and tapes.
