Facile fabrication and some specific properties of polymeric/inorganic bilayer hybrid hollow spheres

Abstract

This paper presents a general and feasible method for the fabrication of polymer/inorganic bilayer hybrid hollow spheres, such as PSAA/ZrO2, PSAA/Nb2O5, PSAA/Ta2O5 and PSAM/TiO2. The formation process of these hybrid hollow spheres could be elucidated using a mechanism similar to the Kirkendall effect. With PSAM/TiO2 hybrid hollow spheres, the as-obtained hybrid hollow spheres showed tunable surface properties, high UV-Vis-NIR reflectance, low thermal conductivity and good compatibility to polymers, which gives them some interesting applications like solar-reflective heat-insulating coatings.
