COMPOSITE SYSTEM COMPRISING A POLYMER MATRIX AND NANOPARTICLES, PROCESS FOR PREPARING IT AND USE THEREOF

摘要

A polymer matrix/nanoparticle composite (PMNC) comprises core-shell nanoparticles, where the core is made of a material that is different from the polymer matrix and at least part of the shell is made of the same monomer or polymer that is used for said polymer matrix, or is made of a monomer or polymer compatible with said matrix. The core of the nanoparticles has a refractive index that is different from the refractive index of the polymer used for the matrix, at least the matrix is made of transparent materials that do not absorb light.
