Abstract:
In order to prevent nano-particle aggregating , the nano-Al
2O
3 particle was covered with PS by emulsionpolymerization. The st ructure of the emulsion polymeric Al
2O
3 / PS composite particle was characterized by TEMand FTIR. The result s indicate that the Al
2O
3 / PS composite particles take an approximate ball shape and the particle consist s of centered core (Al
2O
3 ) and outer shell ( PS) , and the shell thickness is about 10~20nm. The st ructureof polystyrene modified by Al
2O
3 / PS composite particles af ter SLS was studied by SEM and FE-SEM , respectively.It is found that the nano2particles disperse in the mat rix well , and the interfacial compatibility and adhesion propertyare improved , and the density of the sintering body is increased.
