“…Anisotropic nanofillers such as metallic nanowires and carbon nanofibers are useful as fillers for electronic nanocomposite materials because of their nanosize diameter, high aspect ratio, and high electrical and thermal conductivities [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. When compared to microparticles of the same weight, the number and specific surface area of nanoparticles are much larger than those of microparticles.…”

“…During the annealing process, NPs adhered to NWs very strongly, thereby thickening the NWs and increasing their fracture resistance. In the work by Park et al [37], thicker NWs showed a better reinforcing effect with a higher tensile modulus than thinner NWs in the Ni NW/epoxy composite thin films under a conventional tensile test. Therefore, we conclude that the thick NWs formed after the thermal annealing process enhanced the failure strain of Ag NP thin films.…”

We employed very long nanowires mixed into nanoparticle thin films to improve their weak crack resistance for flexible electronics. We also measured the dependence of the failure strain and resistivity of the Ag nanowire-reinforced Ag nanoparticle thin films on the wt% and sintering condition of nanowires by means of resistance measurements under tension in an in situ tensile tester. Very long nanowires of over 90 μm suppressed thin film cracking by bridging cracks in both the transverse and longitudinal directions and also reduced the electrical resistivity under tension. Moreover, diffusion and growth of nanowires induced by the thermal annealing process was observed, resulting in a highly increased failure strain. Due to the use of the same materials, effective diffusion was facilitated, thus inducing strong bonds between nanoparticles and nanowires.

“…The polymer/Ni nanowire nanocomposite actuator depicted change in electromagnetic properties in response to magnetic force direction. Figure 10 shows that the amplitude of the actuated displacement decreased with increasing frequency up to 2 Hz and then increased at In another attempt, Park et al 78 used an electro-micromechanical technique to fabricate polymer/Ni nanowire nanocomposite. Epoxy and silicon were used as matrices for nanowire dispersion.…”

This article presents a state-of-the-art overview on indispensable aspects of polymer/ nanowire nanocomposites. Nanowires created from polymers, silver, zinc, copper, nickel, and aluminum have been used as reinforcing agents in conducting polymers and non-conducting thermoplastic/thermoset matrices such as polypyrrole, polyaniline, polythiophene, polyurethane, acrylic polymers, polystyrene, epoxy and rubbers. This review presents the combined influence of polymer matrix and nanowires on the nanocomposite characteristics. This review shows how the nanowire, the nanofiller content, the matrix type and processing conditions affect the final nanocomposite properties. The ensuing multifunctional polymer/nanowire nanocomposites have high strength, conductivity, thermal stability, and other useful photovoltaic, piezo, and sensing properties. The remarkable nanocomposite characteristics have been ascribed to the ordered nanowire structure and the development of a strong interface between the matrix/nanofiller. This review also refers to cutting edge application areas of polymer/ nanowire nanocomposites such as solar cells, light emitting diodes, supercapacitors, sensors, batteries, electromagnetic shielding materials, biomaterials, and other highly technical fields. Modifying nanowires and incorporating them in a suitable polymer matrix can be adopted as a powerful future tool to create useful technical applications.
