Reflecting the exceptional growth in the use of nanostructured materials for an increasingrangeof industrial applications, Polymer Nanocomposites Handbook comprehensively covers the synthesis of nanomaterials that act as the building blocks of polymer nanocomposites and polymers that act as matrix materials. From early history to new technologies, the book guides readers through the development of nanocomposites and their broad and rapidly developing applicationsfrom fíame retardantpropertiestoadvancesin polymer compounding. Using examples from today´s leading academic and industrial research labs, top scientists provide in-depth discussions of the science, processing, and technology that have accompanied nanocomposites´ ascensión into the world of chemical and materials science
