Polypropylene/filler nanocomposites by melt compounding and in situ polymerization
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2010-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The properties of polymer nanocomposites depend greatly on the
chemistry of the polymer matrices, the nature of the nanofillers, and the way in
which they are prepared. Understanding the synthesis–str ...
Synthesis and characterization of glycopolymer brushes
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2010-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Please refer to full text for abstract
Preparation of polymer-clay nanocomposites via dispersion polymerization using tailor-made polymeric surface modifiers
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2011-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Fully exfoliated polystyrene-clay nanocomposites were prepared via free radical polymerization in dispersion polymerization, in a mixture of ethanol and water. Sodium montomorillonite clay (MMT) was ...
The use of chromium/bis(diphenylphosphino)amine catalysts in tandem ethylene copolymerization processes
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2012-03)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The possibility of utilizing the chromium/bis(diphenylphosphino)amine (PNP) type of
catalysts in ethylene polymerization processes was investigated. These processes
include the production of linear low ...
Polymerization and oligomerization reactions mediated by metallodendrimers of zinc and palladium
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2012-03)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Please refer to full text for abstract
Poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) - Poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) conjugates
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2012-03)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The combination of natural and synthetic polymers allow for the synthesis of advanced
hybrid copolymers. These hybrid copolymers have applications in biomedical areas, one
such area being in drug delivery ...
