This study investigates the mechanical, thermal, and flammability properties of synthetic wollastonite nanofibers (SWN) reinforced polyoxymethylene (POM) nanocomposites. SWN has been added into the POM nanocomposites in the range of 0.5–3 phr via melt blending. The mechanical properties were investi...
