What are the Challenges in Developing Polymer Nanocomposites?
1. Dispersion: Achieving uniform dispersion of nanoparticles within the polymer matrix is challenging but crucial for optimal performance. 2. Compatibility: Ensuring compatibility between the polymer and the nanomaterials to prevent phase separation. 3. Scalability: Large-scale production of polymer nanocomposites while maintaining quality and performance is a significant challenge. 4. Cost: High costs of nanomaterials and processing techniques can be a barrier to widespread adoption.
