ORGANIC/INORGANIC HYBRID NANOCOMPOSITES AND THERMOPLASTIC NANOCOMPOSITE RESIN COMPOSITIONS USING THE SAME

摘要

A polymer composite material includes metal (oxide) nanoparticles chemically bonded to a vinyl polymer. Some embodiments may additionally comprise thermoplastic resin through which the nanoparticles and vinyl polymer are dispersed. In some embodiments, the composite materials have improved impact strength, tensile strength, heat resistance, and flexural modulus.
