The Role of Polymer Chain Stiffness and Guest Nanoparticle Loading in Improving the Glass Transition Temperature of Polymer Nanocomposites

The impact of polymer chain stiffness characterized by the bending modulus (<i>k<sub>θ</sub></i>) on the glass transition temperature (<i>T</i><sub>g</sub>) of pure polymer systems, as well as polymer nanocomposites (PNCs), is investigated using molecu...
