Nanometre-sized TiO2 as applied to the modification of unsaturated polyester resin

Nano-materials can be used as filler for polymers. Thereby, the mechanical properties of the obtained materials can be obviously improved. In this paper, nanometre-sized TiO2 was used as filler for unsaturated polyester (UP) resin, and the effect of the amount of the filler on the mechanical properties of this material was discussed.
