Organic filament-based lightweight materials are increasingly being used because of their high strength-to-weight ratio, recyclability, and low cost. The application nanofillers in addition to natural fibres is a fascinating one. main purpose the current experimental investigation manufacture estimate mechanical material nanocomposites. Natural like flax sisal as reinforcement; nanosilica parti...

This review paper summarizes and discusses the effect of nanosized fillers on bismuth telluride nanocomposites for thermoelectric applications. Classified into various dimensions based electron confinement in space, nanofiller figure-of-merit value is studied. By combining experimental data with theoretical models, mechanisms enhancing properties were proposed. The outcomes this suggest that do...

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/palygorskite (Paly) nanocomposites were prepared using the melt compounding technique. Paly modified by 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and vinyltrimethoxysilane (VTMS) was used as nanofiller for PLA with concentrations in 1–7 wt% range. It has been found that functionalization allows a covalent bond between hydroxyl groups of matrix, evidenced improvement mechanica...
