Abstract

The primary objective of this lecture is to present a number of studies of morphology evolution in a number of nanoparticle reinforced polymers. The examples will consider the crystalline morphologies of polypropylene, polyacrylonitrile and polyimide reinforced by carbon nanofibers and the nematic mesophase of drawn monofilaments of liquid crystalline nanocomposites. The orientation level resulting from the combination of flow and nanoparticle addition is analyzed on the basis of in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction and other structural analyses techniques.
