Clays and carbon nanotubes as hybrid nanofillers in thermoplastic-based nanocomposites – A review

Components such sensors, aerospace, heat exchanger, armour, storage, automobile and other electronics devices are continuously subjected to fluctuating thermal and mechanical stresses which consequently affect their performance, reliability and lifespan. Aerospace industry, for instance, is also in constant quest for weight reduction to attain fuel efficiency in terms of cost. It is because of these factors that engineering polymers are gaining...
