Abstract :
Different diagnostic methods to be used in the early stages of new materials conception are proposed. A two-step method for the design of foamed nanocomposite polymers for electromagnetic interferences (EMI) shielding applications is first presented. An original method more suited to thin nanostructured films and nanocomposite polymer membranes for fuel cell applications is then detailed. Finally the methods are compared to one another and their choice for each sample family is explained.
