The present invention relates to the control of physical properties, to the use of metalized and non-metalized nano-silicon containing agents for the absorption of radiation, and to the formation of nano-glass layers in situ on the material surface. Because of their customizable compatibility with polymers, metals, composites, ceramics, glass, and biological materials, nano-silicone containing silicones can be easily and selectively incorporated into the materials at the nanometer level by direct mixing. Improved properties include gas and liquid barriers, flame resistance, resistance to environmental degradation, radiation absorption, adhesion, printability, time dependent mechanical and thermal properties such as thermal torsion, creep, compression set, shrinkage, modulus , Hardness and wear resistance, electrical and thermal conductivity, and fire resistance. This material is useful in many applications, including beverage and food packaging, space-sustainable materials, microelectronic packaging, and radiation absorbing paints and coatings. |
