Abstract
In this paper, the preparation of polymer/silica nanocomposite particles in a convenient oneβstep process, via in situ miniemulsion polymerization and the solβgel technique, is described. The products were characterized using differential scanning calorimetry, transmission electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering. Moreover, the effects of various reaction parameters, including the content of silica and the concentrations of sodium dodecyl sulfate and potassium persulfate, on the particle size and size distribution were also investigated. It is shown that polymer/silica hybrid nanocomposite particles were successfully synthesized in one step by this novel technique.
