Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis
There is a growing interest among the academics and industrial researchers in the field of natural and synthetic rubbers reinforced with carbon based nano fillers. Carbon Based Nanofillers and their Rubber Nanocomposites provides the synthetic routes, characterization and structural properties and the 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 cover the theory, modelling and simulation aspects of these nanocomposites. Finally, the book lists the various applications of these nanocomposites. It is a unique contribution to the field of rubber science and technology and a valuable reference source for graduates and post graduates, engineers, research scholars, polymer engineers and polymer technologists from industries and also for those who are working in biomedical field.
- Reviews rubber nanocomposites and specifically all the 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
- Discusses suitable analytical techniques for the characterization of carbon-based nanocomposites
