Applications, thermal microscopy fundamentals

Nanomodification creates improved fibre characteristics, e.g. mechanical strength, thermal stability, the enhancement of barrier properties, fire resistance, ion exchange capability, etc., for use in different application fields. In order to follow modification efficiency, various characterization techniques can be used, e.g. X-ray analysis to study composite structure, morphological observations by electron microscopy, mechanical tests, determination of electrokinehc properties, calorimetric measurements. The dispersion of particles within the hybrid system is of fundamental importance, and thus to observe particles a method based on selective etching of the polymer using a plasma...
