Continued research and development of new polymer nanocomposites promises to provide enhanced materials to a broad range of industries, such as plastics, aerospace, automotive, electronics, packaging, and biomedical devices. Structured as a practical laboratory manual, this book enables readers to expertly synthesize and characterize metal-polymer nanocomposites by clearly setting forth the principles and techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNanocomposites: In Situ Synthesis of Polymer-Embedded Nanostructures\u003c\/i\u003e features contributions from an international team of materials science and nanotechnology experts. Chapters reflect the authors' critical review of the literature as well as their own laboratory experience working with polymer nanocomposites. The book begins with a detailed introduction to the science, properties, and applications of metal-polymer nanocomposites. Next, it covers such topics as:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMorphological and topological concepts\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePhase separation and nanoparticle aggregation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMethods for the synthesis of nanocomposites\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMorphological control\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCharacterization techniques and data analysis methods\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eToxicity considerations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eHigh-resolution images of metal nanoparticles, created by transmission electron microscopy, are provided throughout the book. There are also plenty of process schemes and detailed drawings, helping readers better understand how to synthesize, characterize, and use these composite materials.
