Abstract
Ceramic nanoparticles are synthesized by a microwave plasma process and coated with a polymer layer generated in situ by photopolymerization. Acrylic and methacrylic monomers are the most suitable precursors for polymer coatings. In the case of coatings derived from MMA, only a small quantity of the polymeric material is soluble in organic solvents. GPC analysis of the dissolved part reveals the predominance of oligomers. According to FT-IR spectra, a substantial number of MMA-ester groups is transformed into carboxylates, providing strong adhesion of the polymer to the ceramic core insoluble in THF. Composites with PTFE-analog coating exhibiting enhanced thermal and chemical stability are obtained from the condensation of perfluorinated alkanes on metal oxide nanoparticles.
