Polymer nanocomposites were prepared via room temperature mixing of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polyurethane (PU) elastomers as base matrices and titania nanoparticles (both normal and heat treated) as filler material. In case of polyurethane-titania nanocomposites two different mixing methods were used whereas polydimethylsiloxane-titania nanocomposites were prepared using two different types of titania particles, namely normal and heat treated ones. Different characterization techniques like fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric...

Sol-gel technique is one of the simplest techniques to prepare thin films and can provide almost single- or multi-component oxide coating on glass or metals surface. Coatings prepared by this technique have shown excellent chemical stability, oxidation control, and enhanced corrosion resistance for metal substrate. This book focuses on the advantages of nanostructured titanium dioxide coatings to many engineering applications and also explains the mechanisms of formation of the nanostructured titanium dioxide coatings including significant mechanical and physical properties. It also explains...
