Abstract

The nano-TiO2/Poly(butyl acrylate) composite film was prepared by microemulsion in-situ polymerization method on glass substrate. The structure of the thin film was characterized by FTIR, XPS and HRTEM(high-resolution TEM) techniques. The results of FTIR analyses indicated that the poly(butyl acrylate) networks formed through in-situ polymerization. XPS results showed that Ti(OC4H9)4 changed into TiO2 through hydrolyzation. HRTEM of polymerized thin film indicated that the TiO2 nanolines are dispersed in the poly(butyl acrylate) networks.
