Abstract

A stretchable multiple-layer nanocomposite material is provided and includes at least a nanocomposite material layer comprising a network of nanotubes modified with an elastomeric polymer; and at least one additional layer laminated with the nanocomposite material layer. The number of nanocomposite layers and additional layers, the nature and composition thereof, may be varied in a surface direction and/or a thickness direction so as to provide tailored mechanical and physico-chemical properties to a resulting skin that can be used to produce morphing or deployable structures.
