AB This project concerns the characterization of nanocomposites of ferrite oxide(NiFe2O4) and carbon black in poly-metal methacrylate (PMMA) for optical powerlimiting (OPL) applications. This is due to their non-linear optical properties andbehavior at nanosize.Polymers show an improvement in properties when they are alloyed with nano-fillers.The polymer-based nanocomposites which are used for OPL applications need to becharacterized for particle distribution in relation with their optical properties, millingtime and particle concentration.To determine the particle distribution, the fracture surface was analyzed by SEM.Some samples were also dissolved in order to only investigate the particles in theSEM. Sample preparation required for SEM investigation is presented and thedifficulties that occur along the process are described.
