Synthesis of SiO2-coated Bi2S3/poly(styrene) nanocomposites by in-situ polymerization

New nanocomposites containing silica-coated Bi2S3 nanofibers were synthesised by in situ polymerization using two distinct synthetic strategies: emulsion and suspension polymerization. Transmission and scanning electron microscopy of the nanocomposite particles showed that in both cases the Bi2S3/Si...
