Abstract

Physical responses of nanoparticle (NP)-polymer interphase/interface to external stimulus is a topic of great interest in nanocomposites. Previously, the interphase was tacitly assumed to have passive responses with constant material properties during deformation while the interface was mainly studi...

description Physical responses of nanoparticle (NP)-polymer interphase/interface to external stimulus is a topic of great interest in nanocomposites.

To explore the unique features of the interphase we used a full-atom molecular dynamics simulation to monitor the evolution of its mass density and atomic stress profiles during deformation. A cohesive zone model was then used to define the key parameters for the NP-polymer interaction, which enable one to study the responses of the interface without spherical symmetry and understand the unique behavior of the stretched interphase/interface.
