Inhaltsangabe

Conducting Polymer-Based Nanocomposites: Fundamentals and Applications delivers an up-to-date overview on cutting-edge advancements in the field of nanocomposites derived from conjugated polymeric matrices. Design of conducting polymers and resultant nanocomposites has instigated significant addition in the field of modern nanoscience and technology. Recently, conducting polymer-based nanocomposites have attracted considerable academic and industrial research interest. The conductivity and physical properties of conjugated polymers have shown dramatic improvement with nanofiller addition. Appropriate fabrication strategies and the choice of a nanoreinforcement, along with a conducting matrix, may lead to enhanced physicochemical features and material performance. Substantial electrical conductivity, optical features, thermal stability, thermal conductivity, mechanical strength, and other physical properties of the conducting polymer-based nanocomposites have led to high-performance materials and high-tech devices and applications.

This book begins with a widespread impression of state-of-the-art knowledge in indispensable features and processing of conducting polymer-based nanocomposites. It then discusses essential categories of conducting polymer-based nanocomposites such as polyaniline, polypyrrole, polythiophene, and derived nanomaterials. Subsequent sections of this book are related to the potential impact of conducting polymer-based nanocomposites in various technical fields. Significant application areas have been identified for anti-corrosion, EMI shielding, sensing, and energy device relevance. Finally, the book covers predictable challenges and future opportunities in the field of conjugated nanocomposites.

• Integrates the fundamentals of conducting polymers and a range of multifunctional applications

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Conducting Polymer-Based Nanocomposites: Fundamentals and Applications takes an innovative and methodical approach to the preparation of nanocomposites based on conducting polymers, for a range of advanced applications. The design of conducting polymers and derived nanocomposites has made a significant contribution to materials science and nanotechnology. Appropriate fabrication strategies, along with choice of nano-reinforcement and conducting matrix, can lead to enhanced physicochemical features and material performance. The resulting substantial electrical conductivity, optical features, thermal stability, and mechanical strength of conducting polymer-based nanocomposites enable the development of high-performance materials for cutting-edge devices and applications.

The book begins by introducing essential knowledge relating to conjugated polymers, properties, features, and processing. This is followed by systematic coverage of preparation of conducting polymer-based nanocomposites, organized by material, examining polyaniline, polythiophene, polypyrrole derived nanomaterials, and multifunctional nanostructured materials based on conjugated polymers with nanofibers. The subsequent chapters focus on the impact and implementation of conducting polymer-based nanocomposite state-of-the-art applications, discussing anti-corrosion coatings, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, sensing, and energy devices and systems. Finally, potential challenges and future opportunities in the field of conjugated nanocomposites are considered.

This is a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, and advanced students working with conductive polymers, and across the fields of polymer chemistry, composites, nanotechnology, plastics engineering, chemical engineering, materials science, and engineering. In an industrial setting, this book supports R&D professionals, engineers, and scientists who are interested in innovative materials with conductive properties for a range of applications, such as paints and coatings, packaging, pharmaceuticals, electronics, and energy.
