Abstract:
1. A method for preparing an optically clear nanocomposite layer comprising: processing a mixture to produce an optically clear nanocomposite comprising less than 80% nanofillers by volume and having a transparency to light that differs by more than 20% as compared with the transparency to light exhibited by a composite material of similar composition with filler particles having a domain size of one micron, the mixture comprising nanofillers and a liquid polymer matrix selected from the group consisting of polyacrylates, polyalcohols, polycarbonates, polyalkenes, polyaryls, and combinations thereof.
