despite the great potential of graphene as a nanofiller, achieving homogeneous dispersion remains the key challenge for effectively reinforcing polyolefin (such as polyethylene (pe) and polypropylene (pp)) nanocomposites. therefore, in this research, we report a facile combined in situ polymerization and masterbatch method for fabricating pp/reduced graphene oxide (rgo) nanocomposites. in the p...

atom transfer radical polymerization of styrene (st) and methyl methacrylate (mma) was performed at 90oc in the absence and presence of nanoclay (cloisite 30b). trichloromethyl-terminated poly(vinyl acetate) telomerand cucl/ pmdeta were used as a macroinitiator and catalyst system, respectively. the experimental results showed that the atom transfer radical polymerization of st and mma in the a...

in this work, a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (tpue) model based on polytetramethylene glycol, toluene diisocyanate and 1,4-butanediol was selected and synthesized. according to this model two types of polyurethane nanocomposites were prepared by in situ polymerization and melt intercalation procedures. the organo-modified nanoclay was used in nanocomposites samples in 0.4 weight percent...

a new method was used to prepare abs/pa6 blends by in situ polymerization and compatibilization method. in this process, ε-caprolactam monomer was polymerized in presence of abs via activated anionic polymerization to produce pa6. the main ingredients of the reaction mixture included: monomer ()ε-caprolactam), catalyst na-caprolactamate), microactivator hdi)( and macro-activator sma)(. then, in...

this study aims at exploring an effective route in the in situ graft polymerization of aniline from fe3o4 nanoparticles. to this goal, fe3o4 magnetic nanoparticles were prepared by coprecipitation method using ammonia solution as the precipitating agent, and were characterized by fourier transform infrared (ft-ir) spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (xrd) and transmission electron microscopy (tem)....

styrene nanocomposites were synthesized by in-situ atom transfer radical polymerization at 110oc. the variations of monomer conversion and the linearity of semilogarithmic kinetic plot, some signs of living polymerizationand constant radical concentration in the reaction medium, were revealed by gas chromatography technique (gc). according to the gel permeation chromatography (gpc) results, the...

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles, with an average size of about 45 nm, were encapsulated by polystyrene using in situ nitroxide mediated radical polymerization   in the presence of 3-aminopropyl triethoxy silane (APTES) as a coupling agent and 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-1-oxy  as a initiator. First, the initiator for NMRP was covalently bonded onto the surface of Titanium dioxide na...
