TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on graphite and describe its various modifications for use as modified fillers in polymer matrices for creating polymer-carbon nanocomposites, which is the basic building block of graphite.

TL;DR: In this paper, the preparation of rubber/clay nanocomposites by solution blending, latex compounding, and melt intercalation are covered and a thorough discussion of the mechanical properties of the various rubber and clay nanocompositionite systems is presented.

TL;DR: A detailed literature survey on the various modifications of the carbon nanostructures for nanocomposite preparation focusing upon the works published in the last decade is presented in this article.

TL;DR: In this article, the organic-inorganic hybrid nanocomposites comprising poly(iminohexamethyleneiminoadipoyl), better known as Polyamide-6,6 (abbreviated henceforth as PA66), and silica (SiO2) were synthesized through sol-gel technique at ambient temperature.

TL;DR: The results of thermogravimetric studies on polyamide-6,6 (abbreviated henceforth as PA66) specimens which were modified by electron beam radiation in air, organic-inorganic hybrid nanocomposite films of PA66/silica prepared by the sol-gel technique and unmodified multi-walled carbon nanotube reinforced PA66 films were reported in this article.
