Bulk synthesis of transparent and homogeneous polymeric hybrid materials with ZnO quantum dots and PMMA
2007
In situ sol-gel polymerization is demonstrated for fabricating transparent poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-ZnO quantum dot (QD)- hybrid materials in bulk dimension. The transparent PMMA-ZnO QD hybrid materials exhibit enhanced UV-shielding effects in the entire UV range, even at concentrations as low as 0.02 wt %.
