Viscoelastic Properties of Polymer Nanocomposites with Polydispersity in Nanoparticle SizesBy Koteswara Rao Medidhi, Venkat Padmanabhan
Abstract: The viscoelastic properties of polymer nanocomposites are investigated as a function of the size distribution of nanoparticles, the nature of interactions and results are compared with the pure polymer melt. We modeled our PNCs with two sizes of nanoparticles and polymer blends and four different cases with different polymer-nanoparticle and nanoparticle-nanoparticle non-bonded interactions. We have observed the enhancement in properties is not only due to the addition of nanoparticles but …
