Pmma/zno nanocomposite synthesis by microwave radiation

The paper reveals the simple, quick, cost effective synthesis technique of polymer based nanocomposite which provides enhanced properties than individual. In the present work, we improve a solution based method to synthesize PMMA/ZnO nanocomposite via a solution mixing method in which various ZnO nanostructures were used as a reinforcement particles in the PMMA matrix in addition to DMAc, the resulting solution is extracted as a thin films by spin coating and are subjected to Microwave radiation . The XRD, FTIR, UV, PSA, SEM, AFM revealed the structural, morphological and optical properties of the polymer nanocomposite PMMA/ZnO.
