Effect of polyurethane/nanosilica composite coating on thermomechanical properties of polyethylene film

Polyurethane (PU)/nanosilica composite was fabricated and then coated on polyethylene (PE) film using a rod Mayer technique. The silica nanoparticles used have an average particle size of 16 nm, and their weight fractions varied from 0 to 14%. Two different thicknesses of PU/nanosilica coating layer...
