Remotely actuated polymer nanocomposites--stress-recovery of carbon-nanotube-filled thermoplastic elastomers.
TL;DR: This work demonstrates that the uniform dispersion of 1–5 vol.% of carbon nanotubes in a thermoplastic elastomer yields nanocomposites that can store and subsequently release, through remote means, up to 50% more recovery stress than the pristine resin.

Remotely actuated polymer nanocomposites-stress-recovery of carbon-nanotube-filled thermoplastic elastomers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that the uniform dispersion of 1 − 5 vol.% of carbon nanotubes in a thermoplastic elastomer yields nanocomposites that can store and subsequently release, through remote means, up to 50% more recovery stress than the pristine resin.

TL;DR: In this article, high frequency and large amplitude oscillations are driven by laser exposure in cantilevers made from a photosensitive liquid crystal polymer, which is called photo-sensitive liquid crystal polymers (PLCP).
Journal ArticleDOI
Deformation–morphology correlations in electrically conductive carbon nanotube—thermoplastic polyurethane nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this paper, a small amount of multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to thermoplastic elastomer Morthane produced polymer nanocomposites with high electrical conductivity, low electrical percolation and enhancement of mechanical properties including increased modulus and yield stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Force Field for Mica-Type Silicates and Dynamics of Octadecylammonium Chains Grafted to Montmorillonite
TL;DR: In this paper, a force field for phyllosilicates (mica, montmorillonite, and pyrophyllite) is described on the basis of physically justified atomic charges, van der Waals parameters, vibrational constants, and distributions of charge defects.
