Mineral-filled polymer composites are widely used in industries
across the globe, and applications are continuously increasing in
sectors such as shipping, manufacturing and renewable energy. One
of two volumes comprising the Mineral-Filled Polymer Composites
Handbook, this volume provides an overview of the latest research
and future directions of advanced mineral fiber-reinforced polymer
composites, focused specifically on materials properties. It covers
fundamentals, recent progress and new materials involved in
mineral-filled polymer composites and includes a wide-ranging list
of chapters authored by an international team of experts. This
book: Examines the properties of a wide range of materials, from
macro- to nano-sized Highlights resources for bio-based minerals
production and compares bio-based minerals with commercial mineral
fillers Covers novel synthesis methods Discusses effects of aging
on properties Describes using halloysite and montmorillonite to
improve composite properties and the potential of using mineral
fillers to enhance the properties of biopolymer and synthetic
polymers This book serves as an excellent reference guide for
researchers, advanced students, academics and industry
professionals interested in the synthesis of mineral-filled polymer
and biopolymer composites, as well as those pursuing research in
the broad fields of composite materials, polymers,
organic/inorganic hybrid materials and nano-assembly.
Mineral-filled polymer composites are increasingly used for various
applications, including automotive, construction, biomedical,
maritime, sport and ballistic, due to the advantages of low cost,
light weight, excellent rigidity and high mechanical strength. One
of two volumes comprising the Mineral-Filled Polymer Composites
Handbook, this volume provides an overview of the latest research,
trends, applications and future directions of advanced mineral
fiber-reinforced polymer composites. It focuses specifically on
material selection, processing and applications. This book:
Emphasizes the principles governing the behavior of mineral-filled
composite materials in the field of engineering and their
applications Covers systematic material selection tools such as
analytical hierarchy process (AHP), analytical network process
(ANP), and technique of ranking preferences by similarity of the
ideal solution (TOPSIS) Reviews the use of these materials for
various engineering applications Features chapters looking at
fabrication techniques and frictional properties Details current
research in polymer nanocomposites and particulate polymer
composites This book serves as an excellent reference guide for
researchers, advanced students, academics and industry
professionals interested in the synthesis of mineral-filled polymer
and biopolymer composites, as well as those pursuing research in
the broad fields of composite materials, polymers,
