The production of 'polymer nanocomposites' has recently gained
considerable attention from both the academic and industrial
community, especially in the area of nanoscience. This is mainly
due to their enhanced improvements in physico-mechanical, thermal
and barrier properties compared to micro and more conventional
composites. Their nanoscale dimensions, biodegradable character,
cost-effectiveness and sustainability have constituted a stimulus
for this increasing interest. Currently there is no limit to the
possibility of applications. However, despite all this progress, it
is still difficult to achieve uniform dispersion between the filler
and the matrix, as agglomerations form far too easily and the
production of polymer nanocomposites with high mechanical and
thermal properties is still limited. The authors of this proposed
book, are of the opinion, that with the increase in scientific
publications and the rapid progress in processing possibilities to
produce nanocomposites based on various nanoscale fillers
(silica/clay), a book that collects all of these scientific
findings in one place would be timely and of great interest to both
students and scientific researchers, who are concerned with the
production, and application of nanocomposites as new innovative
materials. The authors aim is to present the latest research
findings on the fabrication, properties and applications of
nanofillers as reinforcement in polymer nanocomposites. Particular
emphasis will be placed on the introduction of various nanofillers
(silica/clay) into different elastomeric polymer matrices that will
enhance the properties of these materials and their applications.
The book will provide an up-to-date review of major innovations in
the field and act as a reference for future research in materials
science and engineering, which is highly topical due to the demand
to produce more sustainable and eco-friendly innovative advanced
materials from elastomeric polymers.
