Polymer-Based Nanocomposite Materials for Functional Applications in Devices

TL;DRAbstract

In recent years Nanostructured polymer and polymer-based nanocomposites are key materials for new device applications. Fabrication of nanostructured polymeric materials (e.g.: monodispersed latex, block copolymers, nanocomposites) and inorganic materials have evolved rapidly. It is already known that the inherent properties of the polymer matrix are enhanced through nanocomposite formation by the synergistic interactions between the polymer matrix and the nanoparticles. The aspect of the device applications of polymer-nanocomposites can be broadened by modifying the surface properties of nanoparticles, doping and filling the matrix with nanoparticles of both pand n-type and introducing functionalities in polymer matrix. These eBook chapter is dealing with the above observations with experimental evidences and references. This eBook chapter also deals with synthesis of various nanocomposites by tailoring the properties of polymer materials and nanomaterials which has been explained with
