In Situ Synthesis of Silver and gold-epoxy Nanocomposites by Photoinduced Electron Transfer and Cationic Polymerization Processes

摘要

Metallic nanoparticles have special properties that may allow their use in a number of advanced functional applications. As a result, the fabrication of polymer-metal nanocomposites has attracted a great deal of attention in recent years.1-5 Nanocomposite materials consisting of dispersed metal nanoclusters in a polymeric matrix show extraordinary physical properties and they have been proposed for optical,6 electrical7 and medical8 applications as well as for data storage.
