Abstract
⺠Polyimide nanocomposites with nanoparticles of zirconium tungstate were prepared. ⺠Effect of surface functionalized ZrW2O8 on properties of nanocomposites is reported. ⺠Polyimide-ZrW2O8 nanocomposites exhibit reduced CTE and increased tensile modulus. ⺠The CTE of polyimide is reduced by 22% with the addition of 15 volume% ZrW2O8. ⺠Surface functionalization of filler improves the tensile properties of composites.
