Abstract:PVC syntheses were done by suspension polymerization in the presence of hybrid silicone/acrylic core-shell type nanofiller. The moldings made from PVC nanocomposites are fully homogeneous and of good transparency. SEM images show very good, uniform dispersion of nanofiller in PVC matrix. The blends made from nanocomposites show higher tensile strength (~10%) and tensile modulus (20% higher for nanofiller amount equal to 0.2 wt.%/VCM) than PVC homopolymer. The impact strength of all samples made from PVC nanoco… Show more
