Synthesis of highly functionalized polymeric nanoparticles by means of atmospheric and low pressure plasma polymerization Ghent University
This innovative project intends to explore non-thermal plasma polymerization as a single-step, eco-friendly technology to synthesize densely-functionalized polymeric nanoparticles (PNPs) The formation of silicon, silicon carbide, metal and metal oxide nanoparticles in non-thermal plasmas has already been widely explored However, PNP synthesis by means of plasma polymerization of any organic precursor has only been rarely studied, and never ...
