Description

Polymer Nanocomposite-Based Smart Materials: From Synthesis to Application provides a broad, comprehensive review on all major categories of smart materials and their preparation routes. The main application fields and properties for these diverse types of smart polymer-based composite and nanocomposite materials are also discussed. Chapters on modeling methods and simulation look at the physical or chemical change response that is introduced by the effect of changing environmental conditions such as pH, temperature, mechanical force and light. Written by scholars and experts from around the globe, the book covers key aspects, such as synthesis, processing and applications of polymer and nanocomposite-based smart materials.

Author Biography:

Dr. Rachid Bouhfid has been working as Director of Research at the Moroccan Foundation for Advanced Science, Innovation and Research (MAScIR), Rabat, Morocco, since 2009. Before joining MAScIR, he was working as an assistant professor of chemistry at Artois University in France. Dr. Bouhfid received his doctoral degree from the University Mohammed V Rabat, in Morocco. He has more than fifteen years’ experience in teaching and research on organic chemistry, materials science, and in nanotechnology and polymer chemistry. His main areas of research include hybrid nanomaterials, reinforced polymer nanocomposites, and advanced materials such as graphene, nanoclay, cellulose nanocrystals, fire retardants and nanocomposites. During his career he has designed various kinds of nanostructured materials for wastewater treatment, packaging, sensing, and biomedical applications. He has published more than 165 research papers in SCI indexed journals and has authored/edited 56 books, 54 book chapters, and 43 patents. Prof. Abou el kacem Qaiss is currently working as Director of the Composites Nanocomposites Centre at the Moroccan Foundation for Advanced Science, Innovation and Research (MAScIR), Institute of Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology (Nanotech) in Rabat (Morocco). His research areas include: hybrid reinforced/filled polymer composites, advance materials: graphene/nanoclay, lignocellulosic reinforced/filled polymer composites, modification and treatment of lignocellulosic fibres, nanocomposites and nanocellulose fibres, as well as polymer blends. So far, he has published three books, 30 chapters and more than 75 international journal papers with 25 patents to his credit. Dr. Mohammad Jawaid is a professor at Biocomposite Technology Laboratory, Institute of Tropical Forestry and Forest Products (INTROP), Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM), Malaysia, and also has been Visiting Professor at the Department of Chemical Engineering, College of Engineering, King Saud University, Saudi Arabia, since June 2013. He has more than 16 years of experience in teaching, research, and industries. His area of research interests includes hybrid composites, lignocellulosic reinforced/filled polymer composites, advance materials: graphene/nanoclay/fire retardant, modification and treatment of lignocellulosic fibers and solid wood, biopolymers and biopolymers for packaging applications, nanocomposites and nanocellulose fibers, and polymer blends.
