Polymer nanocomposites: Why their mechanical performance does not justify the expectation and a possible solution to the problem?
The expected order-of-magnitude enhancement in modulus (at loadings less than 1%) of polymer nanocomposites has proven elusive – the observed improvements are 10–35% only. The failure of the concept has been attributed to poor dispersion, poor interfacial load transfer, process-related deficiencies,...
