Polymer Nanocomposites and Sustainable Polymer Composites: Fundamentals, Fabrication, Properties, And Applications

Dear Professors and Researchers,

We have been privileged to edit a book titled "Polymer Nanocomposites and Sustainable Polymer Composites: Fundamentals, Fabrication, Properties, and Applications", which would be published by Elsevier. This book would cover practically the most important aspects of polymeric nanocomposites and sustainable polymeric composites, including history, chemical structure, overview of production technologies, compositing, and post-processing methodologies such as surface engineering and bulk deformation, to mention a few.

We invite you to contribute a book chapter to the edited book in the above-mentioned areas of research. The chapters are expected to be copiously presented with illustrations and detailed descriptions covering the interface between polymer and reinforcement, fractography, and the morphology of corroded or worn surfaces to enable an easy understanding of the governing mechanisms. The book would serve as a comprehensive analytical repository for researchers, academicians, scientists, and engineers working in the field of polymeric composite materials and sustainable composite technologies. Hence, we request your valuable contribution to this noble academic knowledge-sharing process. (No Publication Fees)
