Atomic force microscopy of polymers with silica nanopowder

Adhesive forces of the polymers, modified with nanopowders of silicon dioxide were determined; changes of surface relief of polymers were studied with the help of the atomic force microscope. Adhesion force increase of the polymer nanocomposite samples with 1 and 3% nanopowders content (Tarcosil-50, Tarcosil-150) in contrast to non-modified sample was stated.
