Multifunctionality of Polymer Composites

Challenges and Applications

About this book

Multifunctionality of Polymer Composites: Challenges and Applications, Second Edition, brings together contributions from experts in the field of multifunctionality, presenting state-of-the-art discussion on the possible routes to achieve multifunctionality in reinforced polymers and composite structures, as well as their application in various industries. This new edition has been revised and expanded to include the latest advances, new materials, and applications that have emerged in recent years, and includes new chapters on self-healing composites, thermoelectric generators, vitrimers, morphing composites, and sliding materials. The text will enable engineers and materials scientists to achieve multifunctionality in their own products using different types of polymer matrices and various nano- and micro-sized fillers and reinforcements, including carbon nanotubes and graphene. In addition, technologies for the integration of active materials such as shape memory alloys are discussed. The latest developments in a wide range of applications, including automotive/aerospace, electronics, construction, medical engineering, and future trends are discussed, making this book an essential reference for any researcher or engineer seeking to stay ahead in this high-potential area. - Discusses information on composites and their inherent engineering advantages over traditional materials - Provides practical guidance and insights on multifunctionality of polymer composites, enabling engineers and materials scientists to achieve multi-functionality in their own products - Features updated content in all chapters, as well as a number of new chapters on self-healing composites, thermoelectric generators, vitrimers, morphing composites and sliding materials
