The primary difference between these materials lies in the : Composites and Nanocomposites | Springer Nature Link
The specialized field of focuses on tailoring material properties by mixing multiple components at various scales. 1. Fundamental Definitions
: Multi-component materials where a polymer matrix is reinforced with macroscopic or microscopic fillers, such as glass or carbon fibers .
: Homogeneous mixtures (single phase) with a single glass transition temperature ( Tgcap T sub g
: Physical mixtures of two or more different polymers.
: Large macromolecules consisting of repeating structural units. They serve as the "matrix" or base for more complex systems.
: Heterogeneous mixtures with distinct phases and multiple Tgcap T sub g
