## Abstract Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) composites were synthesized by the grafting of PMMA onto the sidewalls of SWNTs via __in situ__ radical polymerization. The free‐radical initiators were covalently attached to the SWNTs by a well‐known esterification

Nanozirconia (nano-ZrO 2 ) was prepared by the sol-gel method and incorporated into poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) by the in situ bulk polymerization of methyl methacrylate. The structure of the nano-ZrO 2 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy, and Fourier tran
## Abstract Biseeds emulsion polymerization was investigated with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polystyrene (PSt) as biseeds and styrene (St) as second‐stage monomer, as well as with thermodynamic analysis; namely, the principle of minimum interfacial free‐energy change was utilized to expla
