Preparation and characterization of poly(methyl methacrylate)/titanium oxide composite particles

Before polymerization, the introduction of double bonds onto the surface of the TiO₂ particles was achieved by the treatment of the TiO₂ particles with the silane-coupling agent. Via in-situ emulsion polymerization, the poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/titanium oxide (TiO₂) composite particles were prepared by graft polymerization of MMA from the surface of the modified TiO₂ particles. The structure of the obtained PMMA/TiO₂ composite particles was characterized using fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and size excluding chromatography (SEC). The morphology of the obtained PMMA/TiO₂ composite particles was observed by transmission electron microscope (TEM). The results of FT-IR and TGA measurements show that PMMA is successfully grafted from the surface of the TiO₂ particles and that the percentage of grafting and the grafting efficiency can reach 208.3% and 96.6%, respectively. At the same time, the TGA and DSC measurements indicate an enhancement of thermal stability. TEM images demonstrate a better dispersion of the TiO₂ particles in the composite latex. In addition, UV-visible absorption measurements show that the PMMA/TiO₂ composite particles can absorb over 95% UV light at 210–400 nm wavelength.     

Fabrication of zinc oxide/poly(styrene) grafted nanocomposite latex and its dispersion

Zinc oxide nanoparticles, with an average size of about 40 nm, were encapsulated by polystyrene using in situ emulsion polymerization in the presence of 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMS) as a coupling agent and polyoxyethylene nonylphenyl ether (OP-10) as a surfactant. Polymerization mechanism of nanocomposite latex was discussed. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) proved the presence of ZnO nanoparticle appeared to be monodisperse in nanosize in polymer composite particles. ZnO/PS nanocomposites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results of FT-IR and XPS revealed that the surface of ZnO particle was successfully grafted by PS through the link of the coupling agent between ZnO and polymer. TGA and DSC results indicated an enhancement of thermal stability of composite materials compared with the pure polymer. SEM (scanning electron microscope) images showed a perfect dispersion of the ZnO particles in latex film. In addition, UV-visible absorption measurements demonstrated that the ZnO/PS composite coatings display a perfect performance of absorbing UV light.     

Preparation and clinical application of immunomagnetic latex

Magnetic poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/poly(methyl methacrylate‐co‐methacrylic acid) [P(MMA–MAA)] composite polymer latices were synthesized by two‐stage soapless emulsion polymerization in the presence of magnetite (Fe₃O₄) ferrofluids. Different types and concentrations of fatty acids were reacted with the Fe₃O₄ particles, which were prepared by the coprecipitation of Fe(II) and Fe(III) salts to obtain stable Fe₃O₄ ferrofluids. The Fe₃O₄/polymer particles were monodisperse, and the composite polymer particle size was approximately 100 nm. The morphology of the magnetic composite polymer latex particles was a core–shell structure. The core was PMMA encapsulating Fe₃O₄ particles, and the shell was the P(MMA–MAA) copolymer. The carboxylic acid functional groups (COOH) of methacrylic acid (MAA) were mostly distributed on the surface of the composite polymer latex particles. Antibodies (anti‐human immunoglobulin G) were then chemically bound with COOH groups onto the surface of the magnetic core–shell composite latices through the medium of carbodiimide to form the antibody‐coated magnetic latices (magnetic immunolatices). The MAA shell composition of the composite latex could be adjusted to control the number of COOH groups and thus the number of antibody molecules on the magnetic composite latex particles. With a magnetic sorting device, the magnetic immunolatices derived from the magnetic PMMA/P(MMA–MAA) core–shell composite polymer latex performed well in cell‐separation experiments based on the antigen–antibody reaction. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Morphology and thermal properties of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane/polybutadiene nanocomposites prepared by anionic polymerization

The morphology and thermal properties of Allylisobutyl Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane (POSS)/Polybutadiene (PB) nanocomposites prepared through anionic polymerization technique were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results of XRD, SEM and TEM showed that the aggregation of POSS in PB matrix occurred obviously, forming crystalline domains and the size of POSS particles increased with increasing POSS content. The DSC and TGA results indicated that the glass transition temperature (T _g) of the nanocomposites was significantly increased and the maximum degradation temperature (T _dmax) of nanocomposites was slightly increased compared with pure PB, implying an increase in thermal stability.

Structure of mechanically activated high-energy Al + polytetrafluoroethylene nanocomposites

The structure of high-energy Al/polytetrafluoroethylene nanocomposites prepared by mechanochemical synthesis is studied by X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and chemical analysis. It is revealed that the composite consists of aluminum particles with sizes of 100–150 nm separated by the polymer layers. The formation of nanocomposite is accompanied by the accumulation of dislocations with the density ρ = (4 ± 1.5) × 10¹⁰ cm⁻². Upon the shock-wave initiation of activated samples, Al + (-C₂ F₄-) → AlF₃ + C reaction propagates in detonation-similar regime at supersonic speed. The velocity of detonation is the highest at the stoichiometric component ratio.     

Characterization of kaolinite/emulsion-polymerization styrene butadiene rubber (ESBR) nanocomposite prepared by latex blending method: Dynamic mechanic properties and mechanism

The latex blending method was chosen to prepare Kaolinite/emulsion-polymerization styrene butadiene rubber (ESBR) nanocomposite to improve the interaction between filler particles and rubber matrix chains. The influences of kaolinite particles size, filler contents, and flocculants types on dynamic mechanical properties and the relative reinforcement mechanism of the prepared composite were systematic investigated and proposed. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the kaolinite particles were finely dispersed into the rubber matrix and arranged in parallel orientation. The prepared nanocomposites by latex blending exhibited improved crosslinking characteristic and dynamic mechanical parameters. The KAl (SO₄)₂ flocculant presented obvious modification in dynamic properties and crosslinking characteristic. Both the decrease in kaolinite particle size and the increase in kaolinite content can greatly improve the storage modulus and reinforcing effect of kaolinite/ESBR nanocomposites. The dynamic reinforcement mechanism of kaolinite can be explained by filler network including a certain thickness of rubber shell on the surface of kaolinite lamellar structure and the aggregations network between kaolinite particles The optimum way to balance the dynamic properties of rubber nanocomposites at different temperatures is to reduce the surface difference between kaolinite and rubber matrix and the degree of filler-filler networking on the basis of kaolinite with nanoscale (nanometer effect).     

Synthesis and morphology of an iron oxide/polystyrene/poly(isopropylacrylamide‐co‐methacrylic acid) thermosensitive magnetic composite latex with potassium persulfate as the initiator

In this work, an iron oxide (Fe₃O₄)/polystyrene (PS)/poly(N‐isopropylacryl amide‐co‐methacrylic acid) [P(NIPAAM–MAA)] thermosensitive magnetic composite latex was synthesized by the method of two‐stage emulsion polymerization. The Fe₃O₄ particles were prepared by a traditional coprecipitation method and then surface‐treated with either a PAA oligomer or lauric acid to form a stable ferrofluid. The first stage for the synthesis of the thermosensitive magnetic composite latex was to synthesize PS in the presence of a ferrofluid by emulsion polymerization to form Fe₃O₄/PS composite latex particles. Following the first stage of reaction, the second stage of polymerization was carried out with N‐isopropylacryl amide and methacrylic acid as monomers and with Fe₃O₄/PS latex as seeds. The Fe₃O₄/PS/[P(NIPAAM–MAA)] thermosensitive magnetic particles were thus obtained. The effects of the ferrofluids on the reaction kinetics, morphology, and particle size of the latex were discussed. A reaction mechanism was proposed in accordance with the morphology observation of the latex particles. The thermosensitive property of the thermosensitive magnetic composite latex was also studied. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 45: 3062–3072, 2007     

Electrical and optical properties of ceramic–polymer nanocomposite coatings

Transparent, conductive composite coatings were fabricated from suspensions of poly(vinyl acetate‐acrylic) (PVAc‐co‐acrylic) copolymer latices (50–600 nm) and nanosized antimony‐doped tin oxide (ATO) particles (～15 nm). The suspensions were deposited as coatings onto poly(ethylene terephthalate) substrates and dried at 50 °C. Microstructure studies using field emission scanning electron microscopy and tapping‐mode atomic force microscopy (TMAFM) indicated that the latex particles coalesced during drying and forced the ATO particles to segregate into the boundaries between the latex particles. Low phase contrast was observed with TMAFM; this result was consistent with the presence of PVAc‐co‐acrylic in the ATO‐rich phase of the composite. The conductivity of the composite coatings followed a percolation power‐law equation, with the percolation threshold between 0.05 and 0.075 volume fractions of ATO and the critical conductivity exponent ranging from 1.34 to 2.32. The highest direct‐current conductivity of the composite coatings was around 10^?2 S/cm. The optical transmittance and scattering behavior of the coatings were also investigated. Compared with the PVAc‐co‐acrylic coating, the composite coatings had lower transparency because of the Rayleigh scattering. The transparency of the composite coatings was improved by a reduction in the coating thickness. The best transparency for the coatings with a direct‐current conductivity of approximately 10^?2 S/cm was around 85% at a wavelength of 600 nm. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and morphology of Fe3O4/polystyrene/poly(isopropylacrylamide‐co‐methyl acrylate acid) magnetic composite latex – 2,2′‐azobis (2‐methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride as initiator

In this work, Fe₃O₄/polystyrene/poly(N‐isopropylacryl amide‐co‐methylacrylate acid) (Fe₃O₄/PS/P(NIPAAM‐co‐MAA)) magnetic composite latex was synthesized by the method of two stage emulsion polymerization. In this reaction system, 2,2′‐azobis(2‐methyl propionamidine) dihydrochloride (AIBA) was used as initiator to initiate the first stage reaction and second stage reaction. The Fe₃O₄ particles were prepared by a traditional coprecipitation method. Fe₃O₄ particles were surface treated by either PAA oligomer or lauric acid to form the stable ferrofluid. The first stage for the synthesis of magnetic composite latex was to synthesize PS in the presence of ferrofluid by soapless emulsion polymerization to form the Fe₃O₄/PS composite latex particles. Following the first stage of reaction, the second stage of polymerization was carried out by the method of soapless emulsion polymerization with NIPAAM and MAA as monomers and Fe₃O₄/PS latex as seeds. The magnetic composite particles, Fe₃O₄/PS/P(NIPAAM‐co‐MAA), were thus obtained. The mechanism of the first stage reaction and second stage reaction were investigated. Moreover, the effects of PAA and lauric acid on the reaction kinetics, morphology, and particle size distribution were studied. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

硬脂酸改性纳米羟基磷灰石表面性能的研究

采用硬脂酸(C₁₇H₃₅COOH)对纳米羟基磷灰石(n-HA)表面进行处理,并研究了n-HA与C₁₇H₃₅COOH的界面作用。透射电子显微镜(TEM)、傅立叶红外光谱(FTIR)以及X光电子能谱(XPS)分析表明,C₁₇H₃₅COOH在n-HA表面黏附,其中羧酸根离子(-COO^-)与钙离子(Ca^2＋)之间形成了稳定的离子键,以羧酸钙形式存在。C₁₇H₃₅COOH改性后的n-HA与聚碳酸酯(PC)复合后,复合材料的力学性能与未改性n-HA相比有明显提高。扫描电子显微镜(SEM)结果显示,经处理后的HA微粒在PC中分散均匀,两者间结合紧密,无明显界面,复合材料的断裂呈明显的韧性断裂,随着n-HA无机粒子含量增加,复合材料的断裂也逐渐向韧性与脆性断裂共存转变。     

Nanocomposites derived from in situ grafting of linear and hyperbranched poly(ether‐ketone)s containing flexible oxyethylene spacers onto the surface of multiwalled carbon nanotubes

Linear and hyperbranched poly(ether‐ketone)s (PEKs) containing flexible oxyethylene spacers grafted multiwalled carbon nanotube (PEK‐g‐MWNT) nanocomposites were prepared by direct Friedel‐Crafts acylation as the polymer forming and grafting reaction. To achieve the composites, in situ polycondensations of AB monomers 3‐(2‐phenoxyethoxy)benzoic acid (3‐PEBA) and 4‐(2‐phenoxyethoxy)benzoic acid (4‐PEBA), and AB₂ monomer 3,5‐bis(2‐phenoxyethoxy)benzoic acid (3,5‐BPEBA) were carried out in the presence of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). The reaction conditions, polyphosphoric acid (PPA) with additional phosphorous phentoxide (P₂O₅) in the temperature range of 110–120 °C, were previously optimized. The conditions were used as the polymerization and grafting medium that were indeed benign not to damage MWNTs but strong enough to promote the covalent attachment of PEKs onto the surface of the electron‐deficient MWNTs. From scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy studies, the polymers were uniformly grafted onto the MWNTs. The resultant nanocomposites are soluble in most strong acids such as trifluoroacetic acid, methanesulfonic acid, and sulfuric acid. Both isothermal and dynamic TGA studies in air showed that nanocomposites displayed improved thermo‐oxidative stability when compared with those of corresponding PEK homopolymers. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Semi-Continuous Heterophase Polymerization to Synthesize Nanocomposites of Poly(acrylic acid)-Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes

Two materials, pure poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and nanocomposites with a matrix of PAA and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as reinforcing agent were synthesized by semi-continuous heterophase polymerization (SHP). CNTs were prepared by a chemical vapor deposition technique and purified by steam. CNTs were characterized by a high resolution scanning electron microscopy (HRSEM) and Raman and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopies. Nanocomposites were prepared with: (i) purified CNTs (CNTs_p) or (ii) purified and functionalized CNTs possessing an acyl chloride moiety (CNTs_OCl). In both cases, the nanocomposites synthesis was carried out by in situ polymerization of acrylic acid (AA) by SHP. When CNTs_OCl were used previously to the polymerization of AA, a series of specific amounts of CNTs_OCl and AA were mixed to induce a chemical reaction between the carboxyl group of AA and the acyl chloride group of the CNTs_OCl. The product, acrylic acid grafted to CNTs_OCl (CNTs_OCl-AA), was used to prepare the PAA-CNTs_OCl nanocomposites. The PAA-CNTs_OCl nanocomposites were characterized by HRSEM, Raman, FTIR and CPMAS ¹³C-NMR spectroscopies and also by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results reveal that PAA-CNTs_OCl nanocomposites were formed by PAA macromolecules grafted to CNTs_OCl. The kinetic behavior observed for the synthesis of pure PAA or PAA-CNTs_OCl nanocomposites by SHP was similar. Latexes of PAA-CNTs_OCl nanocomposites were stable without formation of a precipitate of CNTs_OCl for over 1.5 years, while latex prepared with CNTs_p and PAA, was unstable and formation of a precipitate of CNTs_p was observed immediately after its preparation. PAA-CNTs_p nanocomposites were characterized only by TGA. Moreover, latex of the PAA-CNTs_p nanocomposite that did not precipitate immediately after its preparation, turned into a gel; this gelation never occurred with the PAA-CNTs_OCl nanocomposite latex.     

Influence of borohydride concentration on the synthesized Au/graphene nanocomposites for direct borohydride fuel cell

Au/graphene nanocomposites are prepared via a one-pot chemical reduction process at room temperature, using graphene oxide (GO) and chloroauric acid (HAuCl₄) as precursors. The obtained Au/graphene nanocomposites are characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). TEM shows that the Au nanoparticles with size of approximately 8.7 nm disperse randomly on the surface of graphene. XPS confirms that the Au/graphene nanocomposites show a higher atomic percentage of C/O (6.3/1), in contrast to its precursor GO (2.2/1). Electrochemical studies reveal that the Au/graphene nanocomposites have electrochemically active surface area of 9.82 m² g^?1. Besides, the influence of borohydride concentration on the as-prepared Au/graphene nanocomposites is investigated in details by cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and chronopotentiometry. The results indicate that high concentration of borohydride can significantly improve the electrochemical performance of the Au/graphene catalyst.

Thermosensitive and control release behavior of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid)/nano-Fe3O4 magnetic composite latex particle that is synthesized by a novel method

In this study, a novel method was used to synthesize the poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid)/Fe₃O₄ (poly(NIPAAm-AA)/Fe₃O₄) magnetic composite latex. The crosslinked poly(NIPAAm-AA) polymer latex particles were first synthesized by the method of soapless emulsion polymerization, then Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ ions were introduced to bond with the -COOH groups of AA segments in poly(NIPAAm-AA) polymer latex particles. Further by a reaction with NH₄OH, Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles were generated in situ. The concentrations of acrylic acid (AA), crosslinking agent (N,N′-methylene bisacrylamide (MBA)), and Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles were important factors to influence the morphology and lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of poly(NIPAAm-AA)/Fe₃O₄ magnetic composite latex particles. The poly(NIPAAm-AA)/Fe₃O₄ latex particles were used as a thermosensitive drug carrier to load caffeine. The control release of caffeine was studies. Morphology-based schematic models were proposed to explain the control release behavior of the composite particles with different compositions. Moreover, the protein (albumin, acetylated from bovine serum (BSA)) was bound on the surface of poly(NIPAAm-AA)/Fe₃O₄ composite latex particles. The effects of AA, crosslinking agent and Fe₃O₄ contents on the amount of BSA binding were investigated at different temperatures and pH values. The composition-morphology-BSA conjugation relationship was established.
