摘要

UV-curing technique was employed in this study to prepare polyester-acrylate nanocomposite films with silane-grafted silica nanoparticles. Methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane was grafted to the surfaces of silica nanoparticles to improve dispersion of silica nanoparticles as well as interfacial adhesion between the resin matrix and silica nanoparticles. The silane-grafting was confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy. The effects of the silane-grafting on the mechanical and optical properties as well as UV-curing behavior of the nanocomposite films were investigated. The tensile strength, transmittance, UV-curing rate, and final chemical conversion of the nanocomposite films were increased by use of the grafted silica nanoparticles as compared to the use of neat silica nanoparticles.
