Synthesis of polymer grafted silica nanoparticles : effect of grafting on mechanical reinforcement
A series of polymer-silica nanocomposites were prepared by grafting poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(butyl acrylate), polystyrene and poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) from both aggregated silica nanoparticles and colloidally dispersed silica using atom-transfer radical polymerisation (ATRP).
