We report on the influence of parameters controlling filler dispersion and mechanical reinforcement in model nanocomposites. We elaborate a series of nanocomposites and present a structural characterization of silica dispersion in polymer matrix for several particle sizes and polymer matrices, at all relevant scales, by coupling Small Angle X-ray Scattering and Transmission Electronic Microscopy. The mechanical properties are investigated in the linear regime by coupling Dynamical Mechanical Analysis and plate/plate rheology. The results show that: (i) for all filler sizes and matrices, a structural transition is observed from non-connected fractal aggregates at low silica concentration to connected network at high particle content. (ii) In the dilute regime, the reinforcement implies a polymer chain contribution with different possible origins: increase of entanglements density for PS and increase of friction coefficient for PMMA. (iii) In the concentrated regime, for a given polymer, the reinforcement amplitude can be tuned by the rigidity of the filler network, which directly depends on the particle-particle interaction.
