Up-to-date polymer nanocomposite principles, practices, and characteristics

This fully updated guide helps engineers and scientists understand and use the special properties of cutting-edge polymer nanocomposites. Written by a recognized authority in the field, Polymer Nanocomposites: Processing, Characterization, and Applications, Second Edition, begins with an overview of key technologies and processes. Each chapter then examines a different property (structural, mechanical, thermal, flammability, ablation, and electrical) and explains relevant commercial and industrial applications. Examples for a wide variety of usage include applications for spacecraft and defense vehicles, medical and dental implants, flame-retardant and conductive polymers for additive manufacturing, and fire-resistant woven and nonwoven fabrics.

Coverage includes:
Nanotechnology and nanomaterials fundamentals
Applications in an expansive range of industries and commercial sectors
Processing of multifunctional polymer nanocomposites
Structure and properties characterization
Mechanical, thermal, flammability, ablation, electrical, and tribological properties
Opportunities, trends, and challenges in the field
