Synthesis and structure of nanocomposites based on linear polymers and nanoparticles of titanium dioxide

Nanocomposites based on titanium dioxide and epoxy polymer nanoparticles have been obtained and investigated by the in situ method at the stage of curing with preliminary ultrasonic dispersion and evacuation. The composition and structure of the obtained TiO2 nanocomposites have been studied by IR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. It is shown that with an increase in the content of nanoparticles, their average size increases to 88 nm at a TiO2 concentration of 1% as a result of secondary aggregation processes. © 2021, North Atlantic University Union NAUN.
