PMMA mixture with powder of nanoparticles

01 January 1970 1 3K Report

What is the optimal method to mix PMMA sheets with nano-powder?? the PMMA sheet 5cmx5cm

Hi,

if you want to incorporate the nanoparticles inside the sheets, you must either use a twin-screw extruder or dissolution-ultrasonication-drying to make the raw material, which can be then remolded into sheets. You may follow our papers for more details:
