Abstract
Results of broadband dielectric spectroscopy and rheological studies of poly(propylene glycol) + SiO nanocomposites are presented. They show that the dynamics in high-concentrated composite is determined by confinement and adsorption effects, resulting from interactions of confined polymers correspond with the host system at the interface between PPG and solid nanoparticles. The evolution of relaxation times follows the clear Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann pattern, what is proved by the supplementary activation energy temperature index analysis. The strong influence of nanoparticles on the transitional dynamics and the fragility in the ultraviscous domain was noted.
