‘In situ polymerization and composite formation’ (IPCF): An important synthesis route in advanced materials science

Mallick K., Witcomb M.J., Strydom A.M., Mintek, ZA

‘In situ polymerization and composite formation’ (IPCF) types of reactions for the synthesis of ‘metal-polymer composite material’ have a potential advantage in the area of ‘synthetic material science’ since both the polymer and the nanoparticles [...]

Synthesis and Characterization of Novel High-Temperature Stable Nanocomposite Catalysts

Kirchhoff M., Specht U., Veser G., University of Pittsburgh, US

Unusually active and sinter-resistant nanocomposite materials were synthesized by combining the high reactivity of nanosized noble metal particles with the excellent hightemperature stability of hexa-aluminates through a simple one-step microemulsion-templated sol-gel synthesis. The novel nanocomposite [...]
