Nano- and micro-mechanics of polymer blends and composites / Jozsef Karger-Kocsis, Stoyko Fakirov. - [S.l.] : Hanser Publications, 2009. - 604 p. ; 25 cm.

This book gives a state-of-art overview on aspects of micro- and nanomechanics of polymers, polymeric blends and composites. Major issues tackled are the following: experimental techniques to study the mechanical performance of polymer systems especially in respect with molecular, supermolecular and filler architectures on suitable model materials; prediction methods of the mechanical performance (short- and long-term properties); modeling tools and approaches. All these aspects are highlighted on polymeric systems of both academic and practical relevance. Contents: (I) Polymers. (II) Nanocomposites: Influence of Preparation. (III) Nano- and Microcomposites: Interphase. (IV) Nano- and Microcomposites: Characterization. (V) Nanocomposites: Modeling.
