Forming Covalent Crosslinks between Polymer‐Grafted Nanoparticles as a Route to Highly Filled and Mechanically Robust Nanocomposites

Filler aggregation in polymer matrix nanocomposites leads to inhomogeneity in particle distribution and deterioration of mechanical properties. The use of polymer-grafted nanoparticles (PGNPs) with polymers directly attached to the particle surfaces precludes aggregation of the filler. However, soli...
