Because of this molecular level interpenetration of the different polymer chains, very often IPNs exhibit outstanding properties and stable morphologies. Polymer scientists have shown strong interest in developing nanostructured functional materials, which have enhanced properties as compared to conventional polymeric systems. IPNs, therefore, have garnered much attention due to their unique morphology and physical properties.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eResponding to the resulting need for information on IPNs; this book examines their challenges, opportunities and applications.
