Influence of the modification, induced by zirconia nanoparticles, on the structure and properties of polycarbonate

Autor: T.E. Motaung, Adriaan S. Luyt, Maria Luisa Saladino, D. Chillura Martino

Melt compounding was used to prepare polycarbonate (PC)–zirconia nanocomposites with different amounts of zirconia. The effect of the zirconia loading, in the range of 1–5 wt.%, on the structure, mechanical properties and thermal degradation kine
