Tuning the Mechanical Properties in Model Nanocomposites: Influence of the Polymer-Filler Interfacial Interactions
Chloé Chevigny, Nicolas Jouault, Florent Dalmas +2
This paper presents a study of the polymer-filler interfacial effects on filler dispersion and mechanical reinforcement in Polystyrene (PS) / silica nanocomposites by direct compar…
"Wet-to-Dry" Conformational Transition of Polymer Layers Grafted to Nanoparticles in Nanocomposite
Chloé Chevigny, Jacques Jestin, Didier Gigmes +5
The present communication reports the first direct measurement of the conformation of a polymer corona grafted around silica nano-particles dispersed inside a nanocomposite, a matr…
Polystyrene grafting from silica nanoparticles via Nitroxide-Mediated-Polymerization (NMP): synthesis and SANS analysis with contrast variation method
Chloé Chevigny, Didier Gigmes, Denis Bertin +2
We present a new convenient and efficient "grafting from" method to obtain well defined polystyrene (PS) silica nanoparticles. The method, based on Nitroxide-Mediated Polymerizatio…
