Abstract

---

Polymer nanocomposites of PMMA and PBMA were synthesized by incorporating PbO nanoparticles biosynthetically. The main agenda was to enhance the thermal capacities of polymer. Also to incorporate medicinal properties and catalytic nature in polymer. Various techniques like TG/DTA confirmed the enhanced thermal efficiencies of polymer. All the procedures were strictly green in nature. TEM/SEM images confirmed the synthesis of nanoparticles and polymer nanocomposites.
