Why is it important?

The developed machine learning models represent a powerful tool for the optimization of the mechanical properties in multiscale hybrid polymer nanocomposites, saving time and resources in the experimental characterization process.

Perspectives

The approaches developed offer a series of significant benefits, among them, the substantial reduction of experimental work in the laboratory and the consequent optimization of the time and costs associated with procuring materials and performing repetitive physical tests. This allows greater efficiency in the design and development of new hybrid polymeric nanocomposites.
