This book illustrates interfacial properties, preparation, characterization, devices, and applications from the standpoint of nano-interfacial tailoring. Since the primary focus of the book is on the use of nanocomposite dielectrics in electrical applications, chapters are devoted to directly relevant topics, such as surface and bulk breakdown processes. However, the mechanisms that underpin such behavior are not unique. Therefore, the book also addresses related topics that range from the chemistry of polymer and nanocomposite degradation to the simulation of charge transport dynamics in disordered materials, thereby presenting a multi- and interdisciplinary approach to the area. It will serve as a practical handbook or graduate textbook and is supplemented by ample number of illustrations, case studies, practical examples, and historical perspectives.
"This book gives an excellent review of polymeric nanocomposites for dielectric applications, a truly interdisciplinary field between chemistry, physics, and electrical engineering. It covers fundamental concepts and historical reviews of the scientific progress as well as new enablers for a rapid advance in this area. These include methods to chemically design interfaces on a molecular level, three-dimensional imaging technologies on a nanometer level, and the rapid progress in material simulations. From an engineering point of view, the book discusses current and new application areas for nanocomposite dielectrics in the electric power and electronics industry. An outstanding reference for both scientists and engineers."

"This book brings together contributions from researchers active in the area of nanocomposites for electrical applications. Nano-tailoring is the theme of this book. The book is loaded with the most recent information on nanodielectric research, information that can be applied by those who develop their own nanocomposites. Researchers working in this area of research will greatly benefit from reading this book. So also will those in electrical power engineering technology, who will be able to use it to understand the implications of nanocomposite materials for the future of power distribution, and other applications where dielectric and insulating materials exposed to an electric field can offer significantly improved electrical properties as a result of inclusion of nanoparticles."
