The structures of the modified nanoparticles and hybrid nanocomposites were identified using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometry. The hybrid composite films were evaluated for mechanical, thermal and morphological characteristics. Morphological results describe a uniform dispersion of silica particles in the polymer matrix. The thermal stability and mechanical properties of polyimide composite were improved, and the decomposition temperature was increased when the amount of silica nanoparticles was increased.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.965</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ghorpade, Ravindra V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ponrathnam, Surendra</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chavan, Nayaku</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Synthesis of 2-phenoxy-2-phenylethyl acrylate and copolymerization with 2-phenylethyl acrylate: estimation of monomer reactivity ratios, thermal and optical properties</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Macromolecular Science Part A-Pure and Applied Chemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2-Phenoxy-2-phenylethyl acrylate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2-phenylethyl acrylate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">copolymerization</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Optical properties</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">reactivity ratios</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Thermal properties</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2016</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAY</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TAYLOR &amp; FRANCIS INC</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">530 WALNUT STREET, STE 850, PHILADELPHIA, PA 19106 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">53</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">457-464</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;A new aromatic based monomer 2-phenoxy-2-phenylethyl acrylate (PPEA) was synthesized. Copolymers of PPEA with 2-phenylethyl acrylate (PEA) were prepared by free radical polymerization. The reactivity ratios were estimated using various graphical methods. Structural parameters of the copolymers were obtained by calculating the dyad monomer sequence fractions and the mean sequence length. Optical properties of polymers such as refractive indices and UV-Visible absorption were investigated. The glass transition temperature and thermal degradation behavior of the copolymers were studied. Combined with the RI, transparency and thermal properties, prepared copolymers hold great promise as materials for intraocular lens applications.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.963</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
