Description
Magnum Nanocomposites and Polymers With Analytics Methods 2016 Edition by Martineza A
Nanocomposites are composites in which at least one of the phases shows dimensions in the nanometer range. These are high performance materials that exhibit unusual property combinations and unique design possibilities and are thought of as the materials of the 21st century. With an estimated annual growth rate of about 25% and huge demand for engineering polymers, their potential is so promising that they are useful in several applications ranging from packaging to bio-medical. Almost all types of polymers, such as thermoplastics, thermosets and elastomers have been used to make polymer nanocomposites. A range of nanoreinforcements with different shapes have been used in making polymer nanocomposites. This book focuses on materials and analytic methods of polymer nanocomposites, as well as applications of polymers and nanocomposites in different fields.SHOW LESS
