The mechanisms leading to the useful electrical properties of polymer nanodielectrics (2008, background): “If, as proposed by Lewis [4], and observed directly from thermalmechanical property measurements [5, 6], these internal surfaces create interfacial polymer as thick as 20 nm with properties different from the bulk polymer, then it is not surprising that unique dielectric properties are observed.”

A review on the role of interface in mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties of polymer composites (2018, background): “teraction [220, 221], and covalent bonding [222]) increase the Tg while the free space at the interface of nonwetted fillers lead to reduced Tg [204, 223].”
