Preparation and Characterization of Novel Nano-ZnO/Polystyrene Resin Composite

Abstract:

A nano-ZnO/polystyrene resin composite was prepared by adsorption nano-ZnO predecessor (Zn2+) onto macroporous strong acid cation exchange resin, denoted as D001, followed by chemical precipitation. The framework FT-IR spectrums showed new adsorption bands at ca. 1615 cm-1 and ca. 530 cm-1 were observed in ZnO@D001 compared to D001, and vibration peak shift in D001 was found from 1001 cm-1 to 1080 cm-1 in ZnO@D001. The specific surface area declined a litte, but pore volume and average pore diameter declined a lot when nano-ZnO immobilized onto D001. All of above results demonstrated the nano-ZnO particles immobilized on the inner nano-pores/channels of D001 successfully. The coefficient of volume and surface resistance (ρV, ρS) values of ZnO@D001 were lower than 104 Ω•m, indicating its excellent antielectrostatic ability.
