Anionic surfactant for silica-coated polystyrene composite microspheres prepared with miniemulsion polymerization

Raspberry-like composite microspheres with polystyrene (PS) cores and silica shell were prepared through miniemulsion polymerization by using the anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as a surfactant and 1-vinylimidazole (1-VID) as an auxiliary monomer. The strong acid–base interaction between acidic hydroxyl groups of silica surfaces and basic amino groups of 1-VID promote the formation of long-term stable PS/SiO₂ nanocomposite microspheres. Transmission electron microscopy TEM studies indicated that the acid–base interaction between silica nanoparticles and auxiliary monomer was strong enough for the formation of colloidally stable composite microspheres, which have raspberry-like morphology. Influences of several synthetic parameters, such as initial silica amount, the amount of auxiliary monomer 1-VID, and SDS concentration on the polymerization stability, diameters, and morphology of the composite microspheres were studied. A tentative mechanism of the formation of nanocomposite particles was proposed.

The average particle sizes and the final silica contents of the composite microspheres could range from 150 to 250 nm and 10 to 40 wt%, respectively, depending upon the reaction conditions. The influences of some synthetic parameters, for instance, the initial silica amount, MTC amount and SDS concentration on the polymerization stability, diameters, silica contents and morphology of the composite microspheres were studied in detail.

The acid-base interaction between hydroxyl groups (acidic) of silica surfaces and amino groups (basic) of 1-VID was strong enough for promoting the formation of long-standing stable PMMA/SiO₂ nanocomposite particles when 10 mol% or more 1-VID as auxiliary monomer was used. The average particle sizes and the silica contents of the nanocomposite particles were in the ranges from 120–330 nm and 15%–20%, respectively. TEM and SEM observations indicated a raspberry-like morphology of the obtained nanocomposite particles. __________ Translated from Chemical Journal of Chinese Universities, 2005, 26(7) (in Chinese)

Synthesis of PVAc/SiO2 latices stabilized by silica nanoparticles

This paper presents a method for the preparation of raspberry-like organic-inorganic composite spheres with poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) as core and nanosilica particles as shell. A small amount of anionic reactive surfactant, 3-allyloxy-2-hydroxy-1-propanesulfonic acid sodium salt (HAPS), was used as co-stabilizer and nanosilica particles were adsorbed onto the growing latex core in aqueous medium via the formation of hydrogen bonds between nanosilica particles and PVAc particles. TEM indicated that the hydrogen bonds between nanosilica particles and PVAc were strong enough for the formation of long-stable composite spheres with raspberry-like morphology. Influences of some synthetic parameters, for instance, type of silica sol, initial silica amount, and different kinds of low-molecular-weight surfactant, on the morphology of the composite spheres and properties of the latex films were studied in detail. A possible formation mechanism of the composite spheres was also proposed.     

Study on the morphological regulation mechanism of hollow silica microsphere prepared via emulsion droplet template

The morphology regulation of hollow silica microspheres is significant for their properties and applications. In this paper, hollow silica microspheres were formed through the hydrolysis and condensation reaction of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) at the interface of the emulsion droplet templates composed of liquid paraffin and TEOS, followed by dissolving paraffin with ethanol. The effects of various factors including the emulsifier structure and content, TEOS content, catalyst type, and the ethanol content in the continuous water phase on the particle size, shell thickness and morphology of the prepared hollow silica microspheres were studied in detail. The results show that the diffusion and contact of TEOS and water molecules as well as the hydrolysis condensation reaction of TEOS at the oil-water interface are two critical processes for the synthesis and morphological regulation of hollow silica microspheres. Cationic emulsifier with a hydrophobic chain of appropriate length is the prerequisite for the successful synthesis of hollow silica microspheres. The ethanol content in water phase is the dominant factor to determine the average diameter of hollow microspheres, which can vary from 96 nm to 660 nm with the increase of the volume ratio of alcohol-water from 0 to 0.7. The silica wall thickness varies with the content and the hydrophobic chain length of the emulsifier, TEOS content, and the activity of the catalyst. The component of the soft template will affect the morphology of the silica wall. When the liquid paraffin is replaced by cyclohexane, hollow microspheres with fibrous mesoporous silica wall are fabricated. This work not only enriches the basic theory of interfacial polymerization in the emulsion system, but also provides ideas and methods for expanding the morphology and application of hollow silica microspheres.
