Rheological properties of composite polymers and hybrid nanocomposites

This paper summarizes a review of the viscosimetric, viscoelastic and rheological properties of polymers and hybrid nanocomposite polymers. Hybrid nanocomposites can be combined from natural fibers or synthetic fibers and/or both. The hybrid nanocomposite polymer offers the designer the opportunity to achieve the required characteristics to a considerable extent controlled by the choice of appropriate fibers or fillers and the polymer architecture. The rheological behavior of hybrid nanocomposite depends on fiber content, fiber length, fiber orientation, fiber -to -matrix bonding, fiber configuration and filler, respectively. Further, rheological properties of hybrid nanocomposite polymers by introducing various charges were examined discussed.
