Synthesis of UV-Cured Silicone Resin/Silica Nanocomposites from UV-Curable Polysilisiquioxane and Methacrylate-Functionalized Silica

Photocured Nanocellulose Composites: Recent Advances

“…A special class of photopolymerized materials are nanocomposites that have been the subject of intense research efforts owing to expected property enhancement over their macroscopic analogues. These materials include a photopolymer and a filler or reinforcement particles with dimensions below 100 nm, and examples include composites with nanosilica, − carbon nanotubes, − clays, − layered phosphate, , titania, sol–gel silica, graphene, and graphite oxide nanoplatelets . Silica-based UV-cured nanocomposite materials are, for instance, used to create coatings with high scratch and mar resistance. − There is, however, far less literature on UV-cured cellulose composites (Figure ), with a mere total of less than 200 peer-reviewed papers since initial studies in the 1980s, and the field hardly represents 0.5% of the total work produced on cellulose-based composites.…”

A notable increase seems to have gradually developed in recent years, presumably to combine the advantages of a biobased resource and an environmentally friendly process and promote this class of materials as a key enabling approach toward sustainable materials and technologies.…”

Study on constructional design and structural analysis of poly(amide-imide)/ZnO nanocomposites containing pyromellitoyl-bis-l-isoleucine moieties

“…The preparation of organic-inorganic NCs suggests a suitable way to improve the physical properties of usual polymer and composite. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a II-VI compound semiconductor with a wide direct band gap of about 3.3 eV at room temperature. ZnO is currently used in various applications, such as light-emitting diodes and in solar cells.…”
