Design and Applications of Nanostructured Polymer Blends and Nanocomposite Systems - Micro and Nano Technologies Hardcover

Book Synopsis

Design and Applications of Nanostructured Polymer Blend and Nanocomposite Systems offers readers an intelligent, thorough introduction to the design and applications of this new generation of designer polymers with customized properties. The book assembles and covers, in a unified way, the state-of-the-art developments of this less explored type of material.

With a focus on nanostructured polymer blends, the book discusses the science of nanostructure formation and the potential performance benefits of nanostructured polymer blends and composites for applications across many sectors: electronics, coatings, adhesives, energy (photovoltaics), aerospace, automotive, and medical devices (biocompatible polymers). The book also describes the design, morphology, and structure of nanostructured polymer composites and blends to achieve specific properties.

Review Quotes

"...a very good summary of the present state of the art and gives the reader the information necessary to dig deeper into each topic...recommended for those who want to learn about how others are blending polymers for the specific topics listed." --IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine
