Dynamics of polymer segments, polymer chains, and nanoparticles in polymer nanocomposite melts: A review

Journal Article Bailey, Eric J. ; Winey, Karen I. - Progress in Polymer Science

The addition of nanoparticles (NPs) to a polymer matrix, forming a polymer nanocomposite (PNC), is known to alter the microscopic dynamic processes of both species which leads to unique macroscopic material properties of the PNC. Because the NPs and polymers have overlapping characteristic length, time, and energy scales, the interactions within these materials are complex and the dynamics are interrelated. In this review, we present an overview of experimental, simulation, and theoretical results that probe multi-scale polymer and nanoparticle dynamics in polymer nanocomposites and navigate the dense parameter space presented by these multicomponent systems. Although a variety of PNC systemsmore »« less

Addition of Short Polymer Chains Mechanically Reinforces Glassy Poly(2-vinylpyridine)–Silica Nanoparticle Nanocomposites

Journal Article Bocharova, Vera ; Genix, Anne-Caroline ; Carrillo, Jan-Michael Y. ; ... - ACS Applied Nano Materials

The addition of hard fillers to a polymer matrix is a well-known process for achieving mechanical reinforcement. With a decrease in the size of the fillers, the contribution from polymer–particle nanometer-sized interfaces become significant, and these interfaces affect the mechanical performance of polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) beyond the limits established for conventional composites. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the improvement in the mechanical performance of glassy PNCs remain unresolved, necessitating a deeper understanding of the structure–property relationships in these intrinsically heterogeneous systems. In this effort, by using Brillouin light scattering (BLS) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), we demonstrated that adding shortermore »« less

Chain dynamics and nanoparticle motion in attractive polymer nanocomposites subjected to large deformations

Journal Article Senses, Erkan ; Tyagi, Madhusudan ; Natarajan, Bharath ; ... - Soft Matter

The effect of large deformation on the chain dynamics in attractive polymer nanocomposites was investigated using neutron scattering techniques. Quasielastic neutron backscattering measurements reveal a substantial reduction of polymer mobility in the presence of attractive, well-dispersed nanoparticles. Additionally, large deformations are observed to cause a further slowing down of the Rouse rates at high particle loadings, where the interparticle spacings are slightly smaller than the chain dimensions, i.e. in the strongly confined state. No noticeable change, however, was observed for a lightly confined system. The reptation tube diameter, measured by neutron spin echo, remained unchanged after shear, suggesting that themore »« less

Conformation and elasticity of a charged polymer chain bridging two nanoparticles

Journal Article Nowicki, W., E-mail: gwnow@amu.edu.pl ; Nowicka, G. - Journal of Chemical Physics

A complex composed of a charged flexible polymer chain irreversibly attached with its ends to surfaces of two nanoparticles was investigated using the Metropolis Monte Carlo method on a simple cubic lattice. The simulations were performed in the presence of explicit ions. The bridging chain and the nanoparticles bearing the same and the opposite sign charges were considered. Changes in the free energy of the complex upon its stretching or compression, together with the magnitude of the elastic force, were examined. The relative roles of energetic and entropic effects in determining the properties of the complex were identified. Also, themore »« less
