Description

Carbon-Based Nanofillers and their Rubber Nanocomposites: Fundamentals and Applications provides the synthetic routes, characterization, structural properties and effect of nano fillers on rubber nanocomposites. The synthesis and characterization of all carbon-based fillers is discussed, along with their morphological, thermal, mechanical, dynamic mechanical, and rheological properties. The book also covers the theory, modeling, and simulation aspects of these nanocomposites and their various applications. Users will find a valuable reference source for graduates and post graduates, engineers, research scholars, polymer engineers, polymer technologists, and those working in the biomedical field.

Key features

  • Reviews rubber nanocomposites, specifically carbon-associated nanomaterials (nanocarbon black, graphite, graphene, carbon nanotubes, fullerenes, diamond)
  • Presents the synthesis and characterization of carbon based nanocomposites
  • Relates the structure of these nanocomposites to their function as rubber additives and their many applications

Readership

Researchers, professionals, industrial practitioners, graduate students, and senior undergraduates in the fields of rubber science and technology, polymer science and engineering, materials science, surface science, bioengineering and chemical engineering, who work in similar areas or are interested in the field of elastomers
