Occlusion of nanoparticles within inorganic crystals

This Thesis describes the occlusion of nanoparticles (either diblock copolymer nanoparticles or polymer modified metal sols) within either CaCO3 (calcite) or ZnO (wurtzite). First, new spherical diblock copolymer nanoparticles were synthesised via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RA...
