- Title
Nanocomposites: Economy at the nanoscale.
- Authors
Balazs, Anna C.
- Abstract
The article focuses on the study conducted by Ulrich Wiesner and colleagues to create a range of hybrid materials using diblock copolymers and high volume faction of nanoparticles. It has found that particle size plays an important role in tailoring the morpology of composite in which the addition of large particles promotes the formation of onion-like or cylindrical mesophases. Key information about the possibility of synthesizing more heterogeneous composites is further presented.
