Effective strategy for the production of novel magnetite poly(vinyl chloride) nanocomposite films with iron oxide nanoparticles double-capped through citric acid and vitamin C

This study focuses on the synthesis of iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles (NPs), modification of NPs with organic molecules of citric acid (CA) and ascorbic acid (AS), and the incorporation of modified magnetic NPs into poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) matrix. Biodegradable CA and AS coupling agents can improve the organic functional groups on the surface of Fe3O4 NPs.

Structure and Thermal Degradation Properties of Nanocomposites of Alanine Amino Acid-Based Poly(amide-imide) Reinforced with Carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin Intercalated in a Layered Double Hydroxide

MgAl layered double hydroxide (LDH) was intercalated with carboxy-methyl β-cyclodextrin (CMCD) under ultrasonic conditions. Then, different percentages of CMCD functionalized LDH (CMCD-LDH) was incorporated into the alanine amino acid-based poly(amide-imide) (PAI) matrix via ultrasonic irradiations to obtain PAI/CMCD-LDH nanocomposites (NCs). The surface morphology and thermal degradation behavior of the PAI/CMCD-LDH NCs have been examined by different techniques.

Functionalized Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Vitamin C Structures: Characterization and Fabrication of Thiazole Containing Poly(Amide-Imide)-based Composites

ABSTRACT

Functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by ascorbic acid (vitamin C) was carried out. Then, functionalized MWCNTs were dispersed throughout a poly(amide-imide) (PAI) matrix by ex-situ technique with 5, 10, and 15% loading by weight.

Design and characterization of novel poly(vinyl chloride) nanocomposite films with zinc oxide immobilized with biocompatible citric acid

Abstract

Herein, first ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) were modified with citric acid (CA) to prevent agglomeration and achieve good dispersion of NPs in poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) matrix along with controlling the size.
