Thermoresponsive colloidal microgels were prepared by polymerisation of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) with varying concentration of a cross-linking monomer, N,N-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA), in water with either 0.4 or 6.7 mM concentration of an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS). Volume phase transitions of the prepared microgels were studied in D2O by 1H-NMR spectroscopy including the measurements of spin–lattice (T1) and spin–spin (T2) relaxation times for the protons of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) at temperature range 22–50 °C. In addition, microcalorimetry, turbidometry, dynamic light scattering and electrophoretic mobility measurements were used to characterise the aqueous microgels. The results from the different characterisation methods indicated that PNIPAM microgels prepared in 6.7 mM SDS concentration are structurally different compared to their correspondences prepared in 0.4 mM concentration. Increasing MBA concentration in the microgel synthesis appears to increase the structural heterogeneity in both cases of SDS concentration. PNIPAM structures with significantly higher molecular mobilities at temperatures above 35 °C were observed in the microgels prepared in 0.4 mM SDS concentration, as indicated by the 1H NMR relaxation times of different PNIPAM protons. We conclude that the high mobilities measured with NMR at elevated temperatures and also the clearly negative values of zeta potential are in connection to a fairly mobile surface layer with polyelectrolyte nature and a consequent high local lower critical solution temperature. 相似文献

Thermoresponsive colloidal microgels were prepared by polymerization of N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) in the presence of a crosslinking monomer, N,N‐methylenebisacrylamide, in water with varying concentrations (<CMC) of an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS). Volume phase transitions of the prepared microgels were studied in D2O by 1H NMR spectroscopy including the measurements of spin–lattice (T1) and spin–spin (T2) relaxation times for the protons of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) at temperature range 22–50 °C. In addition, microcalorimetry, turbidometry, dynamic light scattering, and electrophoretic mobility measurements were used to characterize the aqueous microgels. As expected, increasing SDS concentration in the polymerization batch decreased the hydrodynamic size of an aqueous microgel. Structures with high mobilities at temperatures above the LCST of PNIPAM were observed in the microgels prepared with small amount of SDS, as indicated by the relaxation times of different PNIPAM protons. It was concluded that the high mobility at high temperatures is in connection to a mobile surface layer with polyelectrolyte nature and with high local LCST. High SDS concentration in the synthesis was observed to prevent the formation of permanent, solid PNIPAM particles. The results from different characterization methods indicated that PNIPAM microgels prepared in high SDS concentrations appear to be more homogeneously structured than their correspondences prepared in low SDS concentration. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Reversible film formation process from nano-sized Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) microgel particles were studied during heating-cooling cycles at various rates. Photon transmission
technique was used and transmitted photon intensity I
tr was monitored during heating–cooling cycles. The increase and decrease in I
tr during heating and cooling was explained with the void closure and void reconstruction processes, and the corresponding activation
energies were measured. It was observed that PNIPAM microgels required less energy during reconstruction of voids than their
closure. 相似文献

The synthesis of nanostructured poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (polyNIPA) hydrogels by a two-stage polymerization process is reported here. The process involves the
synthesis of slightly crosslinked polyNIPA nanoparticles by inverse (w/o) microemulsion polymerization; then, these particles
are dried, cleaned and dispersed in an aqueous solution of NIPA and a crosslinking agent (N,N-methylene-bis-acrylamide or NMBA) and polymerized to produce the nanostructured hydrogels. Their swelling and de-swelling
kinetics, volume phase transition temperatures (T
VPT) and mechanical properties at the equilibrium swollen state are investigated as a function of the weight ratio of polyNIPA
particles to monomer (NIPA). The nanostructured gels exhibit larger equilibrium water uptake, faster swelling and de-swelling
rates and similar T
VPT than those of the conventional ones; moreover, the elastic and Young moduli are larger than those of the conventional hydrogels
at similar swelling ratios. The fast swelling and de-swelling kinetics are explained in terms of the controlled inhomogeneities
introduced by the method of synthesis. 相似文献

Poly(methyl methacrylate)/poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PMMA/PNIPAM) core-shell particles were synthesized by seeded precipitation polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) in the presence of PMMA seed particles. The anionic potassium persulfate was used as initiator, and acrylic acid as functional comonomer. It was shown that the weight ratio of the PNIPAM shell to the PMMA core can be greatly increased through continuous addition of NIPAM monomer at a relatively slow rate. PMMA/PNIPAM particles with different shell thickness were obtained by varying the amount of charged NIPAM monomers. These particles exhibited unique nonspherical core-shell morphology. PMMA core was partially coated by dense hair-like or antler-like PNIPAM shell depending on the shell thickness. The measurement of these particles' zeta potential at different temperatures showed that the absolute value of zeta potential unusually decreased as the particle size decreased with temperature. 相似文献

In this study, a new method was developed to prepare temperature-sensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgels by free radical precipitation polymerization using siloxane coupling agent as the new crosslinker.
Ammonium persulfate acted as the initiator for the radical copolymerization as well as the catalyst for the hydrolysis/condensation
of the siloxane groups. The particle diameter and polydispersity of the microgels were measured by photon correlation spectroscopy
and the results display that the microgels are monodisperse. The microgels exhibit temperature sensitivity and the phase transition
temperature is approximately 31 °C. Furthermore, the diameter of the microgels changes upon heating and cooling processes.
These were observed to be reversible. The novel crosslinking method described herein is the condensation of siloxane groups,
which is totally different from the traditional double-vinyl crosslinkers. This innovative approach offers an alternative
path to prepare functional core–shell particles and inorganic/organic hybrid materials. 相似文献

A water‐soluble comonomer, N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM), and an oil‐soluble crosslinker, divinylbenzene (DVB), have been combined in a system for the synthesis of nanocapsules with crosslinked shells through interfacial miniemulsion polymerization by encapsulating a liquid nonsolvating hydrocarbon. Oligomers of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) were dehydrated and separated from the aqueous phase and were adsorbed by the nanodroplets or latex particles and then anchored at their interfaces by means of a crosslinking reaction. Nanocapsules were then formed through encapsulation of the hydrocarbon by the newly produced polymers at the interfaces of the droplets. The crosslinked structure gradually grew to stabilize the shell morphology. The incorporation of NIPAM into the shell copolymers has been verified by FTIR and solid‐state 13C NMR data. The fact that the number of nanocapsules increases with increasing amounts of DVB and NIPAM supports the formation of nanocapsules following interfacial (co)polymerization. Therefore, a mechanism for the formation of nanocapsules through interfacial (co)polymerization induced by NIPAM and DVB is proposed. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We present a comprehensive investigation of the volume transition in thermosensitive core-shell particles. The particles consist of a solid core of poly (styrene) (radius: 52 nm) onto which a network of crosslinked poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) is affixed. The degree of crosslinking of the PNIPAM shell effected by the crosslinker N,N ′-methylenebisacrylamide was varied between 1.25 and 5 mol%. Immersed in water, the shell of these particles is swollen at low temperatures. Raising the temperature above 32°C leads to a volume transition within the shell. Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (Cryo-TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) have been used to investigate the structure and swelling of the particles. The Cryo-TEM micrographs directly show inhomogeneities of the network. Moreover, a buckling of the shell from the core particle is evident. This buckling increases with decreasing degree of crosslinking. A comparison of the overall size of the particles determined by DLS and Cryo-TEM demonstrates that the hydrodynamic radius provides a valid measure for the size of the particles. The phase transition within the network measured by DLS can be described by the Flory–Rehner theory. It is shown that this model captures the main features of the volume transition within the core-shell particles including the dependence of the phase transition on the degree of crosslinking. All dispersions crystallize at volume fractions above 0.5. The resulting phase diagram is identical to the phase behavior of hard spheres within the limits of error. This demonstrates that the core-shell microgels can be treated as hard spheres up to volume fractions of at least 0.55. 相似文献

The microcapsules with interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) structure based on crosslinked poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and crosslinked poly (acrylic acid) (PAA) were fabricated in a three-step process. Firstly,
silica/PNIPAM core/shell composite particles were synthesized by thermo-initiated seed precipitation polymerization using
3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate modified silica colloidal particles as seeds and N-isopropylacrylamide and N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as monomer and crosslinker, respectively. Secondly, PAA network was incorporated into the shell
of the composite particles by redox-initiated polymerization of acrylic acid and MBA entrapped in the PNIPAM network. Finally,
the silica core of the composite particles was removed using hydrofluoric acid under certain condition to produce the microcapsules.
The chemical compositions, their mass ratio, and particle sizes of the particles formed in each step were determined by Fourier
transformation infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, and dynamic laser light scattering (DLLS), respectively. The IPN structure
of the microcapsules was identified by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using uranyl acetate staining method, and their
hollow structure was evidenced by TEM and scanning electron microscopy. Their temperature- or pH-dependent hydrodynamic diameters
were measured by DLLS, and the results showed that the microcapules had both pH- and temperature-responsive properties, and
the temperature-responsive component and the pH-responsive component inside the microcapsule shell had little interference
with each other. 相似文献

Conversion versus time curves were measured for poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel latexes prepared by polymerization in water with sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS. Polymerization rates increased with temperature with methylenebisacrylamide crosslinking monomer consumed faster thanN-isopropylacrylamide. The particle diameter decreased with increasing concentrations of SDS in the polymerization recipe and there was evidence that the rate of polymerization increased somewhat with SDS concentration. Particle formation occurred by homogeneous nucleation as micelles were absent.Comparison of particle size distributions from dynamic light scattering to those from a centrifugal sizer led to the conclusion that larger particles within a specific latex were less swollen with acetonitrile than were the smaller ones. This was interpreted as evidence for the polymer in larger particles having a higher crosslink density. Particle swelling was estimated from swelling ratios defined as the particle volume at 25 °C divided by the volume at 50 °C. In the absence of crosslinking poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) linear chains would disolve at 25 °C. The swelling results indicated that the average crosslink density in the particles decreased with conversion. This was explained by the observation that the methylenebisacrylamide was consumed more quickly and is typical of crosslinking in emulsion polymerization where polymer particles have high polymer concentrations at their birth. 相似文献

Narrowly distributed polystyrene-g-p(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PSt-g-PNIPAM) was prepared by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of N-isopropylacrylamide using the brominated polystyrene as macroinitiator and CuCl combined with hexamethyltriethylenetetramine
as catalyst. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy confirmed the
structure of PSt-g-PNIPAM. The gel permeation chromatography (GPC) showed that the graft copolymer had a single distribution
peak with molecular weight, M
n (g/mol) of 19815 g/mol (using polystyrene as the standard). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed that due to
both effects of hydrophobic isopropyl groups and hydrogen bonds in the amide group, the glass transition temperature (T
g) of PSt-g-PNIPAM enhanced 16.0°C compared to the T
g of the polystyrene. 相似文献

A reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) agent, the methyl-2-(n-butyltrithiocarbonyl)propanoate (MBTTCP) has shown to be efficient in controlling the polymerization of N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMA), N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and N-acryloyloxysuccinimide (NAS). Two different strategies have been studied to synthesize block copolymers based on one PNIPAN block and the other a random copolymer of DMA and NAS. When a PNIPAM trithiocarbonate-terminated is used as macromolecular chain transfer agent for the polymerization of a mixture of NAS and DMA, well-defined P(NIPAM-b-(NAS-co-DMA)) block copolymers were obtained with a low polydispersity index. These thermoresponsive block copolymers dissolved in aqueous solution at 25 °C and self-assembled into micelles when the temperature was raised above the LCST of the PNIPAM block. The micelle shell containing NAS units was further crosslinked using a primary diamine in order to get shell-crosslinked nanoparticles. Upon cooling below the LCST of PNIPAM this structure may easily reorganize to form nanoparticles with a water filled hydrophilic core. 相似文献

The hydrolysis process suffered by vinylcaprolactam (VCL) monomer during polymerization and the way of avoiding it is a matter of considerable interest when the final material is used in biomedical applications. In this work, in order to study the hydrolysis process in the synthesis of VCL-based microgels, VCL was polymerized by emulsion polymerization in batch and semi-batch reactors by using N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide (BA) as cross-linker and potassium persulfate (KPS) as initiator. Moreover, the partial conversion evolutions of VCL and BA were analyzed by 1H NMR. The colloidal characterization was carried out by measuring the final average diameters as a function of temperature. The results showed that there were two competitive reactions (hydrolysis and propagation) in the polymerizations carried out in the absence of a buffer. However, VCL did not suffer hydrolysis by adding a buffer in the recipes. A new reliable method for the determination of the partial conversions was developed using the quantitative NMR method. The final cross-linked colloidal particles (microgel particles) obtained in the buffered reaction presented the conventional swelling de-swelling behavior corresponding to temperature sensitive microgels. 相似文献

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-grafted polystyrene/poly(styrene-co-4-vinylbenzyl N, N-diethyldithiocarbamate) [PNIPAM-grafted PS/P(St-co-VBDC)] hairy particles were synthesized by photo-polymerizing N-isopropylacrylamide monomer in the presence of PS/P(St-co-VBDC) core particles. Here, the VBDC unit, which was incorporated into the surface of core particles by seeded soap-free emulsion copolymerization, acted as a photo-iniferter. By varying the polymerization conditions, a series of hairy particles having different grafting heights and grafting densities was successfully obtained. The hairy particles exhibited well-defined core/shell morphology. PS/P(St-co-VBDC) formed the core which was surrounded by PNIPAM shell. The determination of critical coagulation concentration (CCC) indicated that the hairy particles were stabilized via both electrostatic and steric mechanisms (i.e., electrosteric mechanism) at a temperature lower than LCST of PNIPAM. However, these particles gave much lower CCCs when heated to the temperature higher than LCST, exhibiting temperature-dependent colloidal stability. 相似文献

Heat and salt induced aggregation of three well-defined double hydrophilic block copolymers (DHBCs) of sodium 2-(acrylamido)-2-methylpropanesulfonate (AMPS) and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) with constant chain length of the PAMPS block (with number-average degree of polymerization, DP n = 61) and varying chain length of the PNIPAM block with DP n = 11, 23, and 34 synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) controlled radical polymerization was investigated by turbidity, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and 1H NMR measurements. In the presence of salt or with an increase in temperature, the diblock copolymers form micelles with a PNIPAM core and PAMPS corona. The heat and salt induced aggregation in dilute aqueous solutions dependant on the molecular characteristics of the DHBC (DP n of the PNIPAM block) was observed. The DHBC becomes amphiphilic as the PNIPAM block loses hydrophilicity at higher temperature above its lower critical solution temperature (LCST). Furthermore, the presence of salt induces salting out effect of the uncharged PNIPAM block. The diblock copolymer thus forms nanosized aggregates at a high temperature or in the presence of salt. These aggregates may be multiple aggregates due to inter-micellar aggregation of the spherical core-corona micelles. 相似文献

A novel and facile strategy has been designed to prepare biodegradable microgels with thermo- and pH-responsive property.
The microgels were synthesized by the crosslinking of N-isopropylacrylamide with vinyl groups functionalized poly(L-glutamic acid) (PGA). The resultant microgels exhibited pH-dependent
phase transition behaviors in aqueous solutions and underwent abrupt lower critical solution temperature decrease when the
pH was reduced below the pK
a of PGA. Dynamic light scattering measurement revealed that the microgels exhibited shrinkage as the temperature increased
or the pH decreased. 相似文献

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and random copolymers of Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PNIPAM-HEMA), poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylamide) (PNIPAM-AAm), and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-N,N-dimethylacrylamide) (PNIPAM-DMAA) with various volume fractions γ of NIPAM were synthesized by radical polymerization. The phase behavior of the polymers in water was investigated by means of optical transmittance and dynamic light scattering. With decreasing γ, the cloud point temperature T
cp for PNIPAM-HEMA decreased whereas the T
cp for both PNIPAM-AAm and PNIPAM-DMAA increased. Increase of hydrodynamic radius around T
cp, which resulted from the aggregation of the globules of each polymer, was observed from dynamic light scattering. The relationships between the reciprocal of T
cp of the polymer solutions and 1-γ were linear for the three copolymers in the experimental range of 0.65<γ<1. The results are discussed from the aspect of the interaction parameters of copolymer solutions. 相似文献

The main objective of this study is to prepare, thermally, sensitive microgel particles bearing thiol groups via precipitation polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM), methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) and vinylbenzylisothiouronium chloride (VBIC) using 2-2′-azobis(2-amidinopropane)-dihydrochloride (V50) as initiator. The influence of various parameters has been investigated as a systematic study to point out the role of each reactant on polymerization conversion, and consequently, on particles and water-soluble polymer formation. The final microgel particles were characterized with respect to particle size and swelling ability. The aim of this paper is to complete our first short communication; Macromolecular symposia, 2000. 150: p. 283–290. 相似文献

Aqueous RAFT polymerization of N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) mediated with hydrophilic macro‐RAFT agent is generally used to prepare poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM)‐based block copolymer. Because of the phase transition temperature of the block copolymer in water being dependent on the chain length of the PNIPAM block, the aqueous RAFT polymerization is much more complex than expected. Herein, the aqueous RAFT polymerization of NIPAM in the presence of the hydrophilic macro‐RAFT agent of poly(dimethylacrylamide) trithiocarbonate is studied and compared with the homogeneous solution RAFT polymerization. This aqueous RAFT polymerization leads to the well‐defined poly(dimethylacrylamide)‐b‐poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide)‐b‐poly(dimethylacrylamide) (PDMA‐b‐PNIPAM‐b‐PDMA) triblock copolymer. It is found, when the triblock copolymer contains a short PNIPAM block, the aqueous RAFT polymerization undergoes just like the homogeneous one; whereas when the triblock copolymer contains a long PNIPAM block, both the initial homogeneous polymerization and the subsequent dispersion polymerization are involved and the two‐stage ln([M]o/[M])‐time plots are indicated. The reason that the PNIPAM chain length greatly affects the aqueous RAFT polymerization is discussed. The present study is anticipated to be helpful to understand the chain extension of thermoresponsive block copolymer during aqueous RAFT polymerization. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
