Nanoparticle-Anchored Plasticizers - US EPA
Plasticizers change the properties of a polymer by increasing the free volume between polymer chains, allowing more chain movement, which translates to more flexibility of the softened plastic. TDA has shown that plasticizers anchored to nanoparticles can soften PVC but cannot escape from the polymer. Although the nanoparticles resis-

functionalized nanoparticles, these findings are of particular interest since the nanoparticles are solid fillers while the PEG oligomeric plasticizer is liquid-like. As an alternative to plasticizing an ionomer with additives, single-ion conductors based on highly flexible siloxane backbones and low binding energy salts

Effects of Nanoparticle Concentration and Plasticizer
Four types of plasticizer were poly (ethylene glycol-400), glycerol, xylitol and sorbitol. The number of hydroxyl groups in polyol affected to the stability of PDA/SiO2 nanocomposite molecules....
