    • Zapata, Paula A.; Palza Cordero, Humberto; Díaz, Boris; Armijo, Andrea; Sepúlveda, Francesca; Ortiz, J. Andrés; Ramírez, Maria Paz; Oyarzún, Claudio (MDPI AG, 2019)
      © 2018 by the authors.CaCO3 nanoparticles of around 60 nm were obtained by a co-precipitation method and used as filler to prepare low-density polyethylene (LDPE) composites by melt blending. The nanoparticles were also ...
    • Amigo, Nicolás; Palza Cordero, Humberto; Canales, Daniel; Sepúlveda, Francesca; Vasco, Diego A.; Sepúlveda, Francisco; Zapata, Paula A. (Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
      © 2019 Elsevier LtdStarch nanoparticles (SNp) with a diameter of ca. 70 nm were synthesized and used as fillers to prepare high density polyethylene (PE) composites by in situ polymerization. The effect of these particles ...
    • Silva, Cristian; Bobillier, Felipe; Canales, Daniel; Sepúlveda, Francesca Antonella; Cament, Alejandro; Amigo, Nicolás; Rivas, Lina M.; Ulloa Flores, María Teresa; Reyes, Pablo; Ortiz, J. Andrés; Gómez, Tatiana; Loyo, Carlos; Zapata, Paula A. (MDPI, 2020)
      Low-density polyethylene composites containing different sizes of calcium oxide (CaO) nanoparticles were obtained by melt mixing. The CaO nanoparticles were synthesized by either the sol-gel or sonication methods, obtaining ...
    • Fonseca, Carmen; Ochoa, Almudena; Ulloa, Maria Teresa; Alvarez, Eduardo; Canales, Daniel; Zapata, Paula (Elsevier Ltd, 2015)
      Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) composites with titanium oxide (TiO2) ~ 10-nm nanoparticles were produced by the melting process and their main properties were evaluated. The nanoparticles are homogeneously dispersed in the matrix ...
