Nanomaterials have, by definition, one or more dimension in the nanometer scale (≤ 100
nm) range and subsequently show novel properties from their bulk materials. The synthesis …

There have been a wide variety of efforts to develop conductive elastomers that satisfy both
mechanical stretchability and electrical conductivity, as a response to growing demands on …

Novel information on filler− elastomer interactions is obtained by combining solid-state 1H
low-field NMR spectroscopy and equilibrium swelling experiments. Multiple-quantum (MQ) …

We describe a convenient, one-step sol− gel route to composite polymeric organic−
inorganic particles. The synthesis is based on performing the sol− gel polycondensation …

Polyacrylate/silica nanocomposite was prepared by sol–gel process via in situ emulsion
polymerization. The influence of the synthetic conditions, such as the ratio of different …

In this review, we discuss the nature and bonding, role of metal acetylacetonates as
precursors for nanoparticle research, polymer science, catalysis and their mechanistic …

Acrylic resin/nano-SiO2 leather finishing agent was prepared via emulsifier-free emulsion
polymerization. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) indicated that the structure …

The preparation of silica–PMMA nanocomposite was reported. The surface modified-silica
nanoparticles can be well dispersed in organic solvent and incorporated into the polymer …

In this study, carbon fiber/alumina/shape memory polymer (SMP) hybrid nanocomposites
were developed with added short carbon fiber (7 wt%) and alumina nanoparticles (0.0–2.0 …

To improve the present unsatisfactory UV-shielding and water-resistance properties of many
emulsion-type latexes, in this study, poly (styrene-butylacrylate-acrylic acid)(PSBA)-grafted …
