Editorial: Nanocomposites with interfaces controlled by grafted or adsorbed polymers

adsorbing polymer molecules can modify both the interfacial physics and filler structure, giving access 14 to improved macroscopic (mechanical, electrical, or optical) material properties.It is aim of present topical collection focus on some aspects recent research in this 16 highly active evolving area. We review summarize state-of-the-art investigations 17 nanocomposite materials which promote at a better understanding control complex behavior 18 nanocomposites. Two articles with original experimental approaches have been contributed, one presenting 19 an innovative application microgel-nanoparticle composites solvent, other in-depth study 20 structure dynamics bulk nanocomposite. In parallel, we reviewed general field 21 particle using scattering techniques, particular neutron scattering, 22 highlighted role layers specific case polymer-grafted nanoparticles 23 second review.Nanocomposites many faces may serve for fundamental studies as well applications.
