Dispersion of nano-fillers is key issue in polymer nanocomposites. A number of researchers study the affinity between the nano-fillers and the polymer in order to modify the dispersion of the nano-fillers. Recent works have shown that the high shear forces are able to trigger bond-scission reaction and bond-activation, which have been called mechanochemical reaction. At this point, we found that there could be a meaningful change when shear force and plasma treatment were coupled in treating nonpolar polymer. Although there is no reactive functional group, a nonpolar polymer was found to be highly reactive temporarily under N2 plasma-assisted shear force, resulting in formidable chemical bondings between incompatible inorganic and organic interfaces. |
