Polymer Nanotubes Nanocomposites by Vikas Mittal Book PDF Summary
Since the publication of the successful first edition of thebook in 2010, the field has matured and a large number ofadvancements have been made to the science of polymer nanotubenanocomposites (PNT) in terms of synthesis, filler surfacemodification, as well as properties. Moreover, a number ofcommercial applications have been realized. The aim of this secondvolume of the book is, thus, to update the information presented inthe first volume as well as to incorporate the recent research andindustrial developments. This edited volume brings together contributions from a varietyof senior scientists in the field of polymer nanotube compositestechnology to shed light on the recent advances in thesecommercially important areas of polymer technology. The bookprovides the following features: Reviews the various synthesis techniques, properties andapplications of the polymer nanocomposite systems Describes the functionalization strategies for single wallednanotubes in order to achieve their nanoscale dispersion in epoxymatrices Provides insights into the multiscale modeling of theproperties of PNT Provides perspectives on the electron microscopycharacterization of PNT Presents an overview of the different methodologies to achievemicro-patterning of PNT Describes the recent progress on hybridization modifications ofCNTs with carbon nanomaterials and their further applications inpolymer nanocomposites Provides details on the foams generates with PNT Provides information on synthesis and properties ofpolycarbonate nanocomposite. Describes the advanced microscopy techniques for understandingof the polymer/nanotube composite interfaces andproperties.
