Description
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).In recent years significant progress has been made in many areas of polymer blend and polymer matrix composite science and technology. This volume comprises a selection of refereed papers which cover the state-of-the-art, and predict future trends in polymer blend and composite research; including established, as well as innovative, applications and new directions for these novel materials.
The contents are grouped into five sections: theoretical and experimental studies of manufacturing processes; structure-property relationships; damage mechanics and characterization; fracture and fatigue; and toughening and strengthening mechanisms. The articles present detailed results and new findings concerning these topics. Alltogether they present an authoritative view of recent research in the important fields of polymer blend and composite use.1. Processing and Manufacturing. 2. Structure-Property Relationships. 3. Damage Mechanics and Characterization. 4. Fracture and Fatigue. 5. Toughening and Strengthening Mechanisms.
