Design of Functional Polymer Nanocomposites: Interface and Interphase Reactions, Compatibilization and Bond Behavior, and Functionalization Procedures reviews the latest developments in this fast-moving research field. The book discusses interface and interphase interactions in polymer nanocomposites, as well as compatibilization behavior and different functionalization procedures. It illustrates how each of these essential tools can be used in the design of new polymer nanocomposites for a broad range of different industrial-scale applications.In the research and development of polymer nanocomposites, the interface and interphase reactions of different constituents is extremely important. They play a vital role in introducing additional features and in the final resultant properties of the nanocomposite. In addition, final properties are also dependent upon the bond behavior and the reaction and interface created between the two constituents. - Covers interface and interphase reactions - Discusses compatibilization behavior and different functionalization procedures as essential design tools - Presents preparation strategies such as polycondensation, copolymerization, and free radical chains polymerization - Provides a diverse focus on a wide range of high-performance applications
