Hybrid Nanofillers for Polymer Reinforcement: Synthesis, Assembly, Characterization, and Applications provides a targeted approach to hybrid nanostructures, enabling the development of these advanced nanomaterials for specific applications. The book begins by reviewing the status of hybrid nanostructures, their current applications, and future opportunities. This is followed by chapters examining synthesis and characterization techniques, as well as interactions within nanohybrid systems. The second part of the book provides detailed chapters each highlighting a particular application area and discussing the preparation of various hybrid nano systems that can potentially be utilized in that area.

The last chapters turn towards notable state-of-the-art hybrid nanomaterials and their properties and applications. This book is a valuable resource for researchers and advanced students across polymer science, nanotechnology, rubber technology, chemistry, sustainable materials, and materials engineering, as well as scientists, engineers, and R&D professionals with an interest in hybrid nanostructures or advanced nanomaterials for a industrial application.
