Preparation and Application of Polymer Nanocomposites, 2nd Edition
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Polymer nanocomposites, which combines the nonpareil physicochemical properties of nanofillers and the flexibility of polymers, play a significant role in many applications, including building supplies, batteries, thermally and electrically conductive materials, automobiles, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials, leisure sports and marine systems. They even produce billions of dollars in output value annually. Moreover, advanced polymer nanocomposites with high tensile strength, high modulus and substantially superior properties are attacting increased attention in the fields of aircraft, aerospace, civil engineering and construction, especially with regard to flexibile wearable electronics. This Topic will focus on the preparation and applications of newly polymer nanocompoistes, providing a platform to identify new functionalities of polymer nanocomposites and broaden their application fields in the future.
