Abstract

This article is focused on the complementary data referring to the article "Dispersion of upconverting nanostructures of CePO₄ using rod and semi-spherical morphologies into transparent PMMA/PU IPNs by the sequential route". It contains the XPS data of CePO_4, photographs and DSC thermograms of transparent PMMA/PU IPNs as well as with CePO₄ dispersed in different wt.%, Confocal laser scanning micrographs, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), optical images of surface, and visual inspection (photographs) before and after aging of hybrid materials.
