Quantitative characterization of silica dispersion and rubber-filler interactions in in-situ sol-gel derived rubber nanocomposites by advanced SEM image analysis
The distribution of nanofillers and their agglomerates at different levels and scales within polymer nanocomposite is a very important aspect for assessing mechanical and physical reinforcement capabilities of polymer nanocomposites. To characterize mechanical and physical properties of polymer nanocomposites, three...
