Hybrid effects in the fracture toughness of polyvinyl butyral-based nanocomposites

Hybrid polyvinyl butyral (PVB) nanocomposite films comprising surface-treated carbon nanotubes (CNT-COOH) and nanoclays (NC) were tested for their “trouser-leg” fracture toughness in comparison to the values of the respective CNT and NC parent composites and to that of the pristine PVB film. Relativ...
