Abstract
In order to obtain photoluminescence characteristics of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), Y2O3:Eu3+ particles are modified by silane coupling agent (KH-151) and introduced into poly(methyl methacrylate) via the in situ polymerization. The Y2O3:Eu3+/PMMA composites exhibit enhanced properties of strength, thermal stability and fluorescence comparing with poly(methyl methacrylate). In particular, the Y2O3:Eu3+/PMMA composite with 0.3 wt % content of Y2O3:Eu3+ exhibits the highest tensile strength of 55 MPa, suggesting its potential application in photoluminescence.
