9780323995313: Polymer-Based Nanostructured Barrier Materials

Synopsis

Polymer-Based Nanostructured Barrier Materials offers an in-depth exploration into the latest advancements in nanostructured barrier technologies. The book covers a range of topics including processing, characterization, and applications, with a focus on polymeric materials utilized in barrier contexts. It details thermoplastics, thermoset polymers, elastomers, specialty elastomers, and biopolymers. The book delves into barrier mechanisms, testing standards, theoretical modeling, simulation, and industrial requirements for nanostructured barrier materials in packaging. It also addresses preparation for specific properties and applications such as edible packaging, active and intelligent packaging, corrosion protection, tire engineering, environmental remediation, and other novel uses.

This comprehensive resource is aimed at researchers, advanced students, industrial scientists, engineers, and R&D professionals interested in barrier and nanomaterials.
