Polymer Science and Technology

Polymer technology is one of the most prevalent zone of existing research as it includes the study and application of nanoscience to polymer-nanoparticle matrices, where nanoparticles are those with at least in dimension of less than 100 nm.  Polymer matrix based nanocomposites consist of polymer or copolymer having nanoparticles dispersed in the matrix. Polymer nanotechnology emphases on polymer-based biomaterials, self-assembled polymeric films, nanofabrication of polymers, polymer blends and nanocomposites. Silicon Nano spheres is the extensively known Nano polymer which shows discrete features and harder than silicon. Preceding the age of nanotechnology phase, polymer blends, block copolymer domain frequently attains Nano scale sizes. Some of the natural and synthetic polymers are collagen, enzymes, elastin, cellulose, chitin, plastics, fibers and adhesives.
