Thermoplastic carbon-fiber fabric composites can be made by low-viscosity and in-situ polymerizable cyclic butylene terephthalate oligomer resin within a few minutes.
Reinforcing polyvinyl chloride with halloysite nanotubes, a naturally occurring form of aluminosilicate mineral, produced a nanocomposite with improved mechanical properties and thermal stability.
Viscoelastic recovery improves the mechanical performance of polymer-fiber composite materials without needing to increase their weight or cross-section thickness.
Adding small amounts of liquid polyethylene glycol to an epoxy matrix improves its impact strength and fracture resistance without significantly affecting its tensile properties.

A novel model describes the way in which thermoplastics melt by dissipative and conductive mechanisms, taking metering, melting, and solid conveying into account.

A novel synthesis method uniformly disperses polyaniline and carbon nanotubes in an elastomeric matrix, resulting in a nanocomposite with tunable conductivity and enhanced mechanical properties.
A chitosan/titanium oxide composite exhibited high photocatalytic activity against harmful dyes as well as antibacterial properties, and it was easier to recover from the environment than titanium oxide alone.

Feeding steam into a twin-screw extruder during fabrication improves the microstructure of PET nanocomposites while subsequent solid-state polymerization enhances their mechanical properties.
Samuel Kenig, Rina Cohen, Pablo Fabian Rios , Amir Shechter, December 2013
As next-generation materials, hybrid polymer composites synergistically combine the properties of traditional polymer composites and more recent polymer nanocomposites.
Solid-state ball milling, a new solventless compounding method, simultaneously lowers the percolation threshold and achieves excellent mechanical properties in processed nanocomposites.
John F. O'Connell, Michael T. K. Ling, Vadim V. Krongauz, December 2013
A new gas chromatography method was used to analyze phthalate plasticizer concentration after poly(vinyl chloride) sample dissolution with consequent phthalate extraction and polymer precipitation.

Electrochemically reducing silver ions in situ within a swollen hydrogel network produces a strong material that slowly releases antibacterial nanosilver.
Polyaniline nanocomposite synthesized with alkyd has good adhesion to fluoride-doped tin oxide and could be used as a low-cost counter electrode for photovoltaics.
