With substantial progresses in reinforcement mechanism of nanoparticle filled polymers
(NPFPs) beyond the hydrodynamic limit, now is the time to reconsider this topic …

The objective of the present work is to investigate, from the open literature, the recent
developments in the rheology of silica and organoclay nanocomposites. In particular, this …

This research aimed at producing malleable, breathable and water impermeable bacterial
cellulose‐based nanocomposites, by impregnating bacterial cellulose (BC) membranes with …

Nowadays, one of the biggest concerns in the world is increasing the CO 2 emissions and
global warming due to the over-consumption of fossil fuels. In addition, under the intense …

Mechanoluminescence (ML) materials enable the transformation of mechanical stimuli into
optical signals. However, current ML devices have limited luminescent programmability and …

Material extrusion (MEX) of soft, multifunctional composites consisting of liquid metal (LM)
droplets can enable highly tailored properties for a range of applications from soft robotics to …

The direct ink writing of an ink composed of a preceramic polymer and fillers was used to
produce hardystonite (Ca2ZnSi2O7) bioceramic scaffolds. Suitable formulations were …

Understanding the mechanical reinforcement of polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) filled with
agglomerated nanofillers has attracted considerable attention in the past century, but a …

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is one of the most commonly used silicone polymers due to its
low cost, optical transparency, flexibility, chemical inertness, and biocompatibility. As a …
