In principle, this chapter is the continuation of the previous chapter where the dispersion of various types of fillers in polymer matrices was discussed. However, in this chapter, more examples pertaining to the interfacial morphology evolution in organic–inorganic composites as well as polymer blends are demonstrated. For example, in the case of nanocomposites with multiple components, specific interactions of some components with filler phase can lead to slightly different morphology at the filler matrix interface as compared to the bulk. Similarly, the interface is very dynamic in the case of multi-component blend systems and is significantly affected even when slight changes in the blend composition are made. The following sections demonstrate the characterization of these aspects associated with the interface evolution.
