Synthesis of well‐defined polymer brushes on the surface of zinc antimonate nanoparticles through surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization

Zinc antimonate nanoparticles consisting of antimony and zinc oxide were surface modified in a methanol solvent medium using triethoxysilane‐based atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiating group (i.e.,) 6‐(2‐bromo‐2‐methyl) propionyloxy hexyl triethoxysilane. Successful grafting of ATRP initiator on the surface of nanoparticles was confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis that shows a significant weight loss at around 250–410 °C. Grafting of ATRP initiator onto the surface was further corroborated using Fourier transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR) and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The surface‐initiated ATRP of methyl methacrylate (MMA) mediated by a copper complex was carried out with the initiator‐fixed zinc antimonate nanoparticles in the presence of a sacrificial (free) initiator. The polymerization was preceded in a living manner in all examined cases; producing nanoparticles coated with well defined poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) brushes with molecular weight in the range of 35–48K. Furthermore, PMMA‐grafted zinc antimonate nanoparticles were characterized using Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) that exhibit significant weight loss in the temperature range of 300–410 °C confirming the formation of polymer brushes on the surface with the graft density as high as 0.26–0.27 chains/nm². The improvement in the dispersibility of PMMA‐grafted zinc antimonate nanoparticles was verified using ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Poly(styrene peroxide) and Poly(methyl methacrylate peroxide) for Grafting on Unsaturated Bacterial Polyesters

A new soluble terephthaloyl oligoperoxide (OTP) was synthesized by the reaction of terephthaloyl peroxide and 2,5‐dimethyl 2,5‐dihydroperoxy hexane. Thermal polymerization of vinyl monomers (styrene, methyl methacrylate) with OTP yielded poly(styrene peroxide) (PS‐P) and poly(methyl methacrylate peroxide) (PMMA‐P) which are used in the grafting reactions onto medium chain length unsaturated bacterial polyester obtained from soybean oily acids with Pseudomonas oleovorans poly(3‐hydroxy alkanoate), (PHA). PS‐g‐PHA and PMMA‐g‐PHA graft copolymers isolated from related homopolymers were characterizated by ¹H NMR spectrometry, FT‐IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis and gel permeation chromatographic (GPC) techniques. Swelling measurement of the crosslinked graft copolymers were also measured to calculate q_v values.

Synthesis of Poly (methyl methacrylate)/Zinc Oxide Nanocomposite with Core-Shell Morphology by Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization

A method to prepare zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles with a covalently bonded poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) shell by surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) was reported. First, the initiator for ATRP was covalently bonded onto the surface of zinc oxide nanoparticles through our novel method. Firstly, the surface of ZnO nanoparticle was treated with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane, a silane coupling agent, and then this functionalization nanoparticle was reacted with α-chloro phenyl acetyl chloride to prepare atom transfer radical polymerization macroinitiator. The metal-catalyzed radical polymerization of MMA with ZnOmacroinitiator was performed using a copper catalyst system to give the ZnO-based nanoparticles hybrids linking PMMA segments (poly (methyl methacrylate)/zinc oxide nanocomposite). These hybrid nanoparticles had an exceptionally good dispersability in organic solvents and were subjected to detailed characterization using FTIR, TEM and TGA and DSC analyzed.     

Preparation of poly(methyl methacrylate) grafted hydroxyapatite nanoparticles via reverse ATRP

Surface-initiated reverse atom transfer radical polymerization (reverse ATRP) technical was successfully employed to modify hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanoparticles with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). The peroxide initiator moiety for reverse ATRP was covalently attached to the HAP surface through the surface hydroxyl groups. Reverse ATRP of methyl methacrylate (MMA) from the initiator-functionalized HAP was carried out, and the end bromide groups of grafted PMMA initiated ATRP of MMA subsequently. Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were employed to confirm the grafting and to characterize the nanoparticle structure. The grafted PMMA gave HAP nanoparticles excellent dispersibility in MMA monomer. As the amount of grafted PMMA increased, the dispersibility of surface-grafted HAP and the compressive strength of HAP/PMMA composites were improved.     

A Study on End Group Characterization of Poly(phenacyl methacrylate) Polymer Produced by Free Radical Polymerization

Free‐radical homopolymerization and copolymerization of phenacyl methacrylate (PAMA) with methyl methacrylate (MMA) was done using 2,2′‐azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) as the initiator in 1,4‐dioxane at 60°C. ¹H‐NMR and FT‐IR spectroscopy confirmed the existence of OCH₂ and CH signals and unsaturated structure and CN stretch at the chain end of low molecular weight poly(phenacyl methacrylate)[poly(PAMA)], respectively. The six‐membered ring with both ester and ether at the end group was detected by ¹H‐NMR. In the poly(PAMA), the end groups formed due to chain transfer reactions were found in large concentrations. The mechanism of the formation of end groups has been presented. The behavior of free radical polymerization of PAMA was compared with that of phenoxycarbonylmethyl methacrylate (PCMMA). The molecular weight distribution of the homo and copolymers was determined using gel permeation chromatography. Thermal properties of the polymers were determined using differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).

Atom transfer radical polymerization directly from poly(vinylidene fluoride): Surface and antifouling properties

The direct preparation of grafting polymer brushes from commercial poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) films with surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is demonstrated. The direct initiation of the secondary fluorinated site of PVDF facilitated grafting of the hydrophilic monomers from the PVDF surface. Homopolymer brushes of 2‐(N,N‐dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) and poly (ethylene glycol) monomethacrylate (PEGMA) were prepared by ATRP from the PVDF surface. The chemical composition and surface topography of the graft‐functionalized PVDF surfaces were characterized by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, attenuated total reflectance/Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy. A kinetic study revealed a linear increase in the graft concentration of poly[2‐(N,N‐dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] (PDMAEMA) and poly[poly(ethylene glycol) monomethacrylate] (PPEGMA) with the reaction time, indicating that the chain growth from the surface was consistent with a controlled or living process. The living chain ends were used as macroinitiators for the synthesis of diblock copolymer brushes. The water contact angles on PVDF films were reduced by the surface grafting of DMAEMA and PEGMA. Protein adsorption experiments revealed a substantial antifouling property of PPEGMA‐grafted PVDF films and PDMAEMA‐grafted PVDF films in comparison with the pristine PVDF surface. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
