Abstract

Polymers have been reinforced by nanophases for a long time. Nevertheless recent technological progress have allowed to put forward new materials, confirming the reinforcing effect of nanoparticles in polymer. They also emphasize the importance of three main parameters in these nanostructured systems : the mechanical coupling between the two phases, the possible cross-linking of the macromolecules by the nanoparticles and the connectivity between reinforcing particles.
