In this work, the  Z  interphase parameter which determines the tensile strength of interphase layers in polymer nanocomposites is presented as a function of various material and interphase properties. In this regard, the simple Pukanszky model for tensile strength of polymer nanocomposites is applied and the dependency of  Z  to different characteristics of constituents and interphase are illustrated by contour plots. The interphase strength ( σ   i ) and  B  interfacial parameter in Pukanszky model show direct links with  Z  parameter. Also, it is found that the volume fractions of nanoparticles and interphase reveal dissimilar effects on  Z . A high  Z  is obtained by a low nanoparticle volume fraction and high content of interphase, but the best values of  Z  are associated with the level of  B  parameter.
