Interfacial effects in composites

Abstract

It is well known that the behavior of diverse multicomponent systems such as fibrous composites, particle-filled polymers, polymer blends, and pigmented coatings depends not only on the composition, morphology, and properties of the constituents, but also on the nature of the interfacial region. This paper reviews typical examples, with emphasis on interpretation of interactions between constituents considered in terms of Lewis acids or bases. © 1985 IUPAC
