Phase morphology in multicomponent polymer-based systems represents
the main physical characteristic that allows for control of the
material design and implicitly the development of new plastics.
Emphasizing properties of these promising new materials in both
solution and solid phase, this book describes the preparation,
processing, properties, and practical implications of advanced
multiphase systems from macro to nanoscales. It covers a wide range
of systems including copolymers, polymer blends, polymer
composites, gels, interpenetrating polymers, and layered
polymer/metal structures, describing aspects of polymer science,
engineering, and technology. The book analyzes experimental and
theoretical aspects regarding the thermal and electrical transport
phenomena and magnetic properties of crucial importance in advanced
technologies. It reviews the most recent advances concerning
morphological, rheological, interfacial, physical, fire-resistant,
thermophysical, and biomedical properties of multiphase polymer
systems. Concomitantly the book deals with basic investigation
techniques that are sensitive in elucidating the features of each
phase. It also discusses the latest research trends that offer new
solutions for advanced bio- and nanotechnologies. Introduces an
overview of recent studies in the area of multiphase polymer
systems, their micro- and nanostructural evolutions in advanced
technologies, and provides future outlooks, new challenges and
opportunities. Discusses multicomponent structures that offer
enhanced physical, mechanical, thermal, electrical, magnetic, and
optical properties adapted to current requirements of modern
technologies. Covers a wide range of materials, such as composites,
blends, alloys, gels and interpenetrating polymer networks.
Presents new strategies for controlling the micro- and
nanomorphology and the mechanical properties of multiphase
polymeric materials. Describes different applications of multiphase
polymeric materials in various fields, including automotive,
aeronautics and space industry, displays, and medicine.
