Smart Rubber Nanocomposites: Opportunities, Innovations and Roadblocks provides an up-to-date and comprehensive review of the latest advances and technological developments in this important research field. The book's chapters focus on the synthesis, processing, properties, and applications of these materials in a broad range of different industrial sectors. Starting with a brief overview of the fundamentals, particular attention is then given to the application of these materials in a broad range of diverse technological ‘smart’ applications.
The book will be an essential reference resource for Academic and industrial researchers, materials scientists, engineers, and manufacturers working in the development of rubber products, composites, and rubber nanocomposites.
