Короткий опис(реферат):
Improvement of polyvinyl alcohol stability against ultraviolet (UV) illumination is achieved by introducing cadmium
sulfide (CdS) nanoparticles into the polymeric matrix. Enhancement of stability is analyzed by optical characterization
methods. UV protection is achieved by diminishing the probability of photo-activated formation of defects in polymer.
The sources of polymer protection are the lowering of the efficiency of polymer excitation via partial absorption of
incident light by the embedded nanoparticles as well as the de-excitation of the macromolecules that have already
absorbed UV quanta via energy drain to nanoparticles. Within the nanoparticles, the energy is either dissipated by
conversion to the thermal energy or reemitted as visible-range photoluminescence quanta.
