Colloidal Silica-Latex Polymer Nanocomposites for High Performance Coatings

摘要

Nanotechnology will have a significant impact on the paints and coatings market through two channels: the improvement of existing surface coatings and the innovation of new products that deliver the right blend of performance and aesthetics. Nanotechnology is the study of material properties with particle size below 100 nm. Hybrid organic-inorganic composites have attracted widespread attention in the domain of material science1.
