The book presents recent developments in the field of composites, investigated by Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy (BDS) and sheds a special focus on nanocomposites. This volume compares the results obtained by BDS with data from other methods like hyphenated calorimetry, dynamical-mechanical spectroscopy, NMR spectroscopy and neutron scattering. The addressed systems range from all kinds of model systems, such as polymers filled with spherical silica particles, advanced materials such as polymers with molecular stickers or hyperbranched polymer-based matrices to industrially significant systems, like epoxy-based materials. The book offers an excellent insight to a valuable application of dielectric spectroscopy and it is a helpful guide for every scientist who wants to study dynamics in composite materials.
Andreas Schönhals received his Diploma degree in Physics (1981), and the degree Dr. rer. nat. from the Technical University Leuna-Merseburg (1984). After that, he moved to the Central Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Academy of Sciences of the former GDR (Berlin) and, in 1993, to the Institute of Applied Chemistry Berlin-Adlershof. Between 1991 and 1995, he conducted several research stays at the Max-Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz in the group of E. W. Fischer. In 1996, Andreas Schönhals did his habilitation at Technical University of Berlin. He joined the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) in 1997. Together with his group, he conducts research on a wide variety of Soft Matter systems ranging from low molecular weight materials, liquid crystals to polymers, polymer-based nanocomposites, and polymers in nanometre confinement and in ultrathin films. In 2010, he was awarded a position as an associate professor at the chemistry department of the Technische Universität Berlin. Moreover, he was an invited as guest professor at the University Lyon I “Claude Bernard” (France) and at the Lodz University of Technology (Poland). Together with F. Kremer, he edited the book Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy (Springer, 2003) which is one of the standard textbooks in the field.
Paulina Szymoniak received her PhD degree (Dr. rer. nat.) in the field of Soft Matter Physics from the Technische Universität Berlin in 2020. She earned her joint Master of Science degree in Polymer Science from Humboldt Universität Berlin, Technische Universität Berlin, Freie Universität Berlin and Universität Potsdam. Since 2016 she works at the Bundestanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) in Germany in the field of polymer nanocomposites and polymers in nanoscale confinement. Her areas of expertise include dielectric spectroscopy and advanced calorimetry.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Books Puddle, New York, New York, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
