I am trying to prepare a polymer nanocomposite solution, the plan is to first prepare polymer separately and separately distribute iron oxide nanoparticles (having no coating) in de-ionized water. Then mix the polymer and water having iron oxide Np's for achieving the desired nanocomposite solution. For this i tried to distribute iron oxide NP's (50 - 100 nm) in DI water with the help of tip sonicator, but it seems that nanoparticles soon set down at the bottom of the container when i stop the sonication. Can you please suggest a way out to distribute them properly?
Hello,
I think you can try by using some surface materials like SDS, Triton 100....etc if the ultrasonic is not active alone...

Hi,I suggest to check them in very low concentrations perhaps, they suitable for your work.
Regards
