Abstract Ceramic/polymer nanocomposites promise to be a new class of materials that will have wide application either for surface protection, providing low friction and inert corrosion barriers, or where tailored electrical and magnetic properties with increased abrasion and wear resistance are required. The high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) combustion spray process has been used to successfully process polymer-ceramic nanocomposites at 5 - 20 volume % of reinforcement. The latest results of process-structure- property relationship studies in silica and carbon black reinforced nylon 11 coatings are presented. It was found that the improvement in mechanical properties depends on the distribution and surface chemistry of the particulates and on the increase in matrix crystallinity due to the particulates.

ABSTRACTCurrently, smart structures utilize both polymeric sensor and PZT-based actuators. The benefit of self-sensing calls for the development of integrated actuator/sensor composites. This paper addresses the development of this new class of smart materials. Porous PZT ceramics were fabricated by several techniques. PVDF was subsequently infiltrated within the controlled porosity PZT. In addition, PVDF or its blends and PZT powders were in-situ processed to generate controlled piezo and mechanical property composites. Both actuating and sensing of this new class of composite materials were studied. The paper presents the processes-structure-property relationship of this new class of piezocomposites.
