Abstract:A series of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) hybrid materials with high-load TiO2 content were prepared via in situ polymerization by dispersing unmodified titanium dioxide (TiO2) in Ethylene Glycol (EG), and the influence of load TiO2 nanofillers on the physical properties of PET masterbatch was investigated. The intrinsic viscosities of the prepared PET hybrid materials were affected by the addition of the nanoparticles and in both cases a slight decrease was observed. In addition, the thermal behavior of th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
