The purpose of this study is to improve the understanding of the mechanisms leading to reinforcement effects in nanocomposite materials. To do this, "model" systems were fabricated using an amorphous polymeric matrix reinforced by colloidal silica nanoparticles. The optical, physicochemical and mechanical properties of these materials were linked to their morphology. The morphological analysis of the nanocomposites showed that the silica nanoparticles were in form of dispersed aggregates for filler fractions lower than 6 %, whereas for higher fractions a percolating network of silica was evident. The study of the molecular mobility of the polymer chains showed that the nanoparticles did not induce any variation of the global mobility of the...
