Modeling the Phase Behavior of Polymer/Clay Nanocomposites (original) (raw)

1999, Accounts of Chemical Research

AI-generated Abstract

This account explores the phase behavior of polymer/clay nanocomposites, emphasizing the interactions between polymers and inorganic clay particles at the nanoscale. By utilizing computational and analytical models, it identifies critical parameters influencing thermodynamic stability, mixing conditions, and possible morphologies of the hybrid materials, ultimately providing guidelines for the efficient synthesis of nanocomposites with enhanced mechanical and thermal properties.
