Filler materials are widely used in combination with polymer materials. Conventional filler particles generally cause light scattering and absorption because of their optical characteristic or refractive index difference. With nanoparticles (NPs) as a filler material, it is theoretically possible to manufacture transparent compounds due to their small particle dimensions reducing the interaction with light. Nevertheless, the particles tend to build agglomerates and aggregates which reduce the composite’s transparency considerably. This review gives an overview of the effect different particle materials have on the properties of transparent polymer composites with consideration of the composite’s transparency. There are very few reports on highly transparent and thick (>1 mm) polymer nanocomposites with such an amount of particles that affect other properties of the polymer significantly. In the majority of cases, NPs lead to a significant lower transparency. This indicates that the homogeneous dispersion of the particles is still a major difficulty in producing transparent nanocomposites with enhanced properties.

“…Electrical properties such as conductivity, power conversion efficiency, for instance from electron to phonon, and antistatic properties in nanocomposites can be obtained by adding graphene, [122,152,163] SWCNTs or MWCNTs [153,154,163,164] for microelectronic applications like electronic devices. Figure 11A-B show a transparent flexible layered graphene/PET film produced through roll-to-roll production possessing a transparency of~90% and a low sheet resistance of~30 Ω/sq for transparent electrodes.…”

Optical transparency is an important property for a material, especially in certain fields like packaging, glazing, and displays. Existing commercial transparent polymeric materials are mostly amorphous. Semicrystalline polymers have often-superior chemical resistance and mechanical properties particularly at elevated temperatures or after solid-state drawing but they appear opaque or white in most cases. This review describes the present state-of-the-art of methodologies of fabricating optically transparent materials from semicrystalline polymers. A distinction is made between isotropic, biaxially stretched, and uniaxially stretched semicrystalline polymers. Furthermore, some functionalities of transparent nanocomposites based on semicrystalline polymers are also discussed. This review aims to provide guidelines regarding the principles of manufacturing transparent high-performance semicrystalline polymers and their nanocomposites for potential applications in fields like packaging, building, and construction, aerospace, automotive, and opto-electronics.

“…Recently, the idea that flexible OLEDs may work without inorganic films has been developed and the brittle components have been replaced by organic materials. Various transparent electrodes with an excellent flexibility, such as conducting polymers [34], graphene/multiwalled carbon nanotube [35], and single carbon nanotube (CNT) films [36], have been studied in an effort to realize reliable and highly flexible OLED displays. However, the sheet resistance of those electrodes is still limited, due to their nature (i.e., hopping mechanism of charge carriers' conduction).…”

Several recent developments in material science and deposition methods for flexible organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) are surveyed. The commonly used plastic substrates are compared, according to their mechanical, optical, thermal, and chemical properties. Multilayer electrode structures, used as transparent electrodes, replacing conventional indium tin oxide (ITO) are presented and data about their conductivity, transparency, and bending ability are provided. Attention is paid to some of the most popular industrial processes for flexible OLEDs manufacturing, such as roll-to-roll printing, inkjet printing, and screen printing. Main specifics and challenges, related to the foils reliability, mechanical stability of the transparent electrodes, and deposition and patterning of organic emissive films, are discussed.
