Abstract

AbstractNanocrystalline alumina particles coated with polyethylene have been prepared by a two‐step chemical vapor synthesis (CVS) process using a hot‐wall reactor to synthesize the nanocrystalline alumina core, and a RF plasma reactor for the subsequent polymer coating. The particle radius is about 4 nm, with the radius of the ceramic core being about 2.5 nm and the coating thickness about 1.5 nm. The powders have been characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), small‐angle neutron scattering (SANS), and high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM).
