Abstract

Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) is usually made with the help of radical polymerization, coordination polymerization, and methyl methacrylate acid esterification. Due to its hardness, PMMA is widely used in the medical sciences, optical materials, electronics, and automotive industries. The present study aims to fabricate PMMA nanoparticles using different chemical methods such as sol-gel polymerization, co polymerization, etc. Various aspects of the synthesis process will be changed, such as temperature, reaction time, initiator type, and monomer/water ratio. We aimed to study their effects on changing the properties of PMMA nanoparticles the morphology and structure of PMMA nanoparticles were investigated by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction.
