New Findings in Nanoparticles Described from Jilin University

摘要

"Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) nanoparticles were successfully prepared via a carbonization route with polyethylene glycol phosphate 1000 (PGP) as the modifying agent to improve the dispersion and increase the compatibility between nanoparticles and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) matrix. PET/CaCO3 nanocomposites were prepared by further in situ polymerization with 5 wt.% CaCO3 nanoparticles," scientists in Changchun, People's Republic of China report.
