Study of Physical and Mechanical Properties of Nanocomposites Incorporating Polysiloxane

Abstract

This study delves into the examination of the physical and mechanical attributes of nanocomposites integrating polysiloxane. Polysiloxane, a versatile and widely-used polymer, is chosen as a key component due to its exceptional flexibility, heat resistance, and dielectric properties. By incorporating polysiloxane into nanocomposites, we aim to explore how these desirable characteristics can be enhanced or modified to suit specific applications.The nanocomposites under scrutiny are synthesized by dispersing nanoscale fillers within the polysiloxane matrix. These fillers may include nanoparticles like graphene, carbon nanotubes, or silica nanoparticles, each possessing unique properties that can potentially augment the composite's overall performance.Throughout this investigation, we rigorously assess the physical properties, such as thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and thermal stability, alongside mechanical properties such as tensile strength, elasticity, and hardness. By comprehensively understanding the interplay between polysiloxane and nanoscale fillers, we aim to unlock new possibilities for tailoring advanced materials with enhanced physical and mechanical characteristics, thereby opening avenues for innovative applications across various industries.
