Synthesis of aluminium nanoparticles in a PP matrix during melt processing: effect of the alkoxide organic chain

The synthesis of aluminium nanoparticles in a polypropylene (PP) matrix by a sol–gel process in the melt was investigated. The study was performed using two aluminium precursors, aluminium isopropoxide and aluminium acetylacetonate, to assess the effect of the stereochemical hindrance of the precurs...
