As an added feature, adding small concentrations (2-5 percent) of nanoparticle anchored plasticizers improved the retention of traditional phthalate plasticizers in flexible PVC. Addition of TDA's nanoparticles improved retention of phthalates against loss to volatilization to air, migration to activated carbon, and extraction to aqueous and
One-pot synthesis of novel nanoparticle-anchored silver

- Are polymer non-covalently modified nanomaterials a promising material for high-performance PNCs?
- This review emphasizes Polymer Non-Covalently Modified Nanomaterials (PNCMNMs) and polymer-grafted nanomaterials (PGNMs) as the most promising materials for fabricating high-performance PNCs. The brief descriptions of these methods, along with their advantages, disadvantages, and applicability, are listed in Table 9.
- Are polymer non-covalently modified nanomaterials efficient?
- In this review, a new classification of polymer non-covalently modified nanomaterials (PNCMNMs) and polymer-grafted nanomaterials (PGNMs) as the most efficient methods to fabricate High-Performance PNCs are introduced.
- Can smart polymer nanoparticles trigger cross-linking reactions during film formation?
- The recent development of smart polymer nanoparticles capable of triggering cross-linking reactions during film formation, in response to a stimuli following sufficient polymer diffusion, opens new possibilities for the development of high-performance water-based coatings.

- Are nanofillers effective in enhancing polymer properties and preserving processability?
- Even at minimal quantities, these nanofillers exhibit a profound impact on enhancing polymer properties while preserving processability. However, challenges such as poor dispersion, agglomeration, and interfacial adhesion remain significant hurdles to achieving optimal performance.
- Are water-dispersed polymer nanoparticles better than solvent-borne coatings?
- Water-dispersed polymer nanoparticles (i.e., latex) have been successfully used to this end, but the resulting films usually present less strength, hardness, and resistance to chemicals than solvent-borne coatings. A method to enhance the properties of these films is through chemical polymer chain cross-linking when the film is formed.
