Structure of interacting aggregates of silica nanoparticles in a polymer matrix: Small-angle scattering and Reverse Monte-Carlo simulations

Julian Oberdisse, Peter Hine, Wim Pyckhout-Hintzen

Reinforcement of elastomers by colloidal nanoparticles is an important application where microstructure needs to be understood - and if possible controlled - if one wishes to tune…
