Abstract
ABSTRACTIn this study, the interphase modulus (Ei) in polymer nanocomposites is calculated by two methods and the calculated results are compared at different conditions. In the first method, the experimental moduli of samples are applied to Ji model and suitable “Ei” is calculated. In the second method, a multilayered interphase is considered, in which the Young's moduli of layers (Ek) depend to the distance between the nanoparticle surface and the polymer matrix by power function of “Y” parameter. The “Ei” is calculated for multilayered interphase assuming the same and different layer thicknesses (tk) by Parallel and Series models. Finally, the “Ei” values calculated by the explained methods are compared for two reported samples. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2016, 133, 44076.
