Designed Interfaces in Polymer Nanocomposites: A Fundamental Viewpoint

Abstract: Using nanocomposites in design-critical applications requires an understanding of their structure–property–function relationships. Despite many reports of highly favorable properties, the behavior of polymer nanocomposites is not generally predictable. The ability to tailor the filler/matrix interaction and an understanding of the impact of the inter face on macroscopic properties are key to designing their properties. Tailoring can be achieved by grafting short mole cules or polymer chains from the surface wi… Show more

“…As suggested by experimental evidence, theoretical arguments and computer simulations [22] - [23], polymer chains interact with the filler inside a hull of thickness t which surrounds the filler particle. Alterations of the geometry and the physical properties of the chains occurring inside the hull affect the material as a whole.…”

“…Many reviews for various aspects of BCP nanocomposites have been published [4,5,8,12,15,16,18,19,[22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41]. To this end, considerable progress has been made in selectively controlling the distribution and location of QD/NP into the desired BCP domains [5,12,16,24,32,42,43].…”

“…Besides, phase separation often takes place owing to the great differences in the properties of polymer and inorganic materials [11]. The second is the chemical method, often used for preparing the inorganic core and polymer shell structure nanocomposites, by in-situ polymerization of monomers in the presence of inorganic nanoparticles.…”
