以酯端基聚酰胺-胺树形分子(PAMAM)为模板在甲醇溶剂中制备了Pd纳米簇合物. 采用紫外-可见分光光度法和红外光谱法研究了Pd²⁺与树形分子的作用机理, 结果表明, Pd²⁺与树形分子内部胺基基团(主要为叔胺基)产生了络合作用. 采用硼氢化钠还原法制备了树形分子包裹的、粒径为2 nm的球形面心立方Pd纳米簇合物. 紫外-可见吸收光谱研究结果表明, Pd²⁺与树形分子的摩尔比越小, 生成的纳米簇合物尺寸越小; 由于高代数树形分子具有封闭结构, 且其内部配体数目较多, 采用较高代数的树形分子(5.5代)比低代数(3.5代)更有利于得到尺寸小、分散性较好的Pd纳米簇合物.

Reparation of silica/poly(methacrylic acid)/poly(divinylbenzene-co-methacrylic acid) tri-layer microspheres and the corresponding hollow polymer microspheres with movable silica core

 Hollow poly(divinylbenzene-co-methacrylic acid) (P(DVB-co-MAA)) microspheres were prepared by the selective dissolution of the non-crosslinked poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) mid-layer in ethanol from the corresponding silica/PMAA/P(DVB-co-MAA) tri-layer hybrid microspheres, which were afforded by a three-stage reaction. Silica/PMAA core-shell hybrid microspheres were prepared by the second-stage distillation polymerization of methacrylic acid (MAA) via the capture of the oligomers and monomers with the aid of the vinyl groups on the surface of 3-(methacryloxy)propyl trimethoxysilane (MPS)-modified silica core, which was prepared by the Stöber hydrolysis as the first stage reaction. The tri-layer hybrid microspheres were synthesized by the third-stage distillation precipitation copolymerization of functional MAA monomer and divinylbenzene (DVB) crosslinker in presence of silica/PMAA particles as seeds, in which the efficient hydrogen-bonding interaction between the carboxylic acid groups played as a driving force for the construction of monodisperse hybrid microspheres with tri-layer structure. The morphology and the structure of silica core, silica/PMAA core-shell particles, the tri-layer hybrid microspheres and the corresponding hollow polymer microspheres with movable silica cores were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).     

Synthesis of P(MBA-co-MAA) microsphere-grafted PAMAM dendrimers and their application as supporters for gold nanoparticles

Poly(N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) microsphere-supported polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers up to third generation (G) were grown onto the surface as well as the gel-layer of P(MBA-co-MAA) microspheres by a divergent method. The P(MBA-co-MAA) supported PAMAM dendrimers were used as heterogeneous stabilizers for the gold nanoparticles by an in situ reduction of HAuCl₄ via the efficient coordination interaction between the amino groups of the supported PAMAM dendrimers and the gold atoms. The effects of the generations of the P(MBA-co-MAA) supported PAMAM dendrimer on the loadings and the catalytic activity of the heterogeneous Au nanoparticles were systematically investigated with the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol as a model reaction.     

Facile synthesis of hollow polymer microspheres with movable cores with the aid of hydrogen-bonding interaction

Poly(divinylbenzene-co-acrylic acid) (poly(DVB-co-AA)) hollow microspheres with movable poly(DVB-co-AA) cores were prepared by a facile route. In this approach, poly(DVB-co-AA) microspheres were first used as templates to synthesize poly(DVB-co-AA)@PAA core-shell particles with a non-crosslinked PAA shell by distillation precipitation polymerization in acetonitrile. In situ polymerization to prepare poly(DVB-co-AA)@PAA@poly(DVB-co-AA) trilayer microspheres was then developed, in which the hydrogen-bonding interaction between the carboxylic acid groups played a key role as the driving force for the formation of monodisperse trilayer structure polymer microspheres. After removal of the non-crosslinked poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) midlayer of the poly(DVB-co-AA)@PAA@poly(DVB-co-AA) microspheres in ethanol under basic conditions, poly(DVB-co-AA) hollow microspheres with movable poly(DVB-co-AA) cores were obtained. Functional poly(DVB-co-AA) cores could be released successfully when the hollow structure was destroyed. The resultant core-shell, trilayer polymer microspheres and hollow polymer microspheres with movable cores were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic laser scattering (DLS), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra.     

Size-selective catalytic activity of Pd nanoparticles encapsulated within end-group functionalized dendrimers

The synthesis and size-selective catalytic activity of Pd nanoparticles encapsulated within dendrimers functionalized with different-sized end groups is described. We designed and synthesized a series of fourth-generation poly(amidoamine) dendrimers having various extents of steric crowding on their periphery. This was accomplished by reacting the terminal amine groups of these dendrimers with epoxyalkanes substituted with different-sized alkyl groups. The modified dendrimers were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry. Nearly monodisperse (1.7 +/- 0.2 nm) Pd nanoparticles were encapsulated within the interior of these dendrimers, and the resulting composite catalysts were used for the hydrogenation of three alpha-allylic alcohols having different sizes. The results showed a clear correlation between the extent of steric crowding on the dendrimer surface and the turnover frequencies (TOFs) for the substrates: more steric crowding on the dendrimer surface led to lower TOFs.     

Synthesis of titania/polymer core-shell hybrid microspheres

Monodisperse titania/polymer core-shell microspheres were prepared by a two-stage reaction with titania as core and poly(ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate) (PEGDMA) as shell, in which the titania cores were synthesized by a sol-gel method and subsequently grafted with 3-trimethoxysilyl methacrylate as the first-stage reaction to incorporate the vinyl groups on the surface of inorganic core. The PEGDMA shell was then encapsulated over the MPS-modified titania core by distillation precipitation polymerization of ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate in neat acetonitrile during the second-stage polymerization via capture of the radicals of EGDMA with the aid of the reactive vinyl groups on the surface of inorganic core without any stabilizer or surfactant. The shell thickness of the core-shell hybrid microspheres was controlled by the feed of EGDMA monomer during the polymerization. The resultant titania particles and core-shell microspheres were studied by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis.     

Facile preparation method of SiO2/PS/TiO2 multilayer core-shell hybrid microspheres

Organic-inorganic hybrid particles have many potential applications, but almost all of this research was focused on the hybrid particles containing one kind of inorganic nanoparticles. This paper presented a facile preparation method for SiO2/PS/TiO2 multilayer core-shell hybrid microspheres. In this approach, positively charged SiO2/PS core-shell hybrid particles were first synthesized by miniemulsion polymerization using cationic initiator and emulsifier. These positively charged SiO2/PS hybrid particles were mixed with tetra-n-butyl titanate for sol-gel reaction to directly form SiO2/PS/TiO2 multilayer core-shell hybrid microspheres. Some influencing parameters such as surfactant concentration, tetra-n-butyl titanate amount, and glacial acetic acid amount were investigated. TEM, TGA, and EDX analyses indicated that titania layers were successfully coated onto the surfaces of hybrid microspheres.     

Preparation and characterization of thermosensitive polymers grafted onto silica-coated iron oxide nanoparticles

In this study, multifunctional nanoparticles containing thermosensitive polymers grafted onto the surfaces of 6-nm monodisperse Fe(3)O(4) magnetic nanoparticles coated by silica were synthesized using reverse microemulsions and free radical polymerization. The magnetic properties of SiO(2)/Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles show superparamagnetic behavior. Thermosensitive PNIPAM (poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)) was then grafted onto the surfaces of SiO(2)/Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles, generating thermosensitive and magnetic properties of nanocomposites. The sizes of fabricated nanoparticles with core-shell structure are controlled at about 30 nm and each nanoparticle contains only one monodisperse Fe(3)O(4) core. For thermosensitivity analysis, the phase transition temperatures of multifunctional nanoparticles measured using DSC was at around 34-36 degrees C. The magnetic characteristics of these multifunctional nanoparticles were also superparamagnetic.

pH-Responsive hollow polymeric microspheres and concentric hollow silica microspheres from silica-polymer core-shell microspheres

Nearly monodispersed silica-poly(methacrylic acid) (SiO 2-PMAA) core-shell microspheres were synthesized by distillation-precipitation polymerization from 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propylmethacrylate-silica (SiO 2-MPS) particle templates. SiO 2-PMAA-SiO 2 trilayer hybrid microspheres were subsequently prepared by coating of an outer layer of SiO 2 on the SiO 2-PMAA core-shell microspheres in a sol-gel process. pH-Responsive PMAA hollow microspheres with flexible (deformable) shells were obtained after selective removal of the inorganic SiO 2 core from the SiO 2-PMAA core-shell microspheres by HF etching. The pH-responsive properties of the PMAA hollow microspheres were investigated by dynamic laser scattering (DLS). On the other hand, concentric and rigid hollow silica microspheres were prepared by selective removal of the PMAA interlayer from the SiO 2-PMAA-SiO 2 trilayer hybrid microspheres during calcination. The hybrid composite microspheres, pH-sensitive hollow microspheres, and concentric hollow silica microspheres were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis.     

Fabrication and functionalization of dendritic poly(amidoamine)-immobilized magnetic polymer composite microspheres

The synthesis of functionalized magnetic polymer microspheres was described by a process involving (1) preparation of the monodisperse magnetic seeds according to a two-step procedure including the preparation of bilayer-oleic acid-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles followed by soap-free emulsion polymerization with methyl methacrylate (MMA) and divinyl benzene (a cross-linking agent, DVB); (2) seeded emulsion polymerization proceeding under the continuous addition of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) monomers in the presence of the magnetic PMMA seeds; and (3) chemical modification of the PGMA shells with ethylenediamine (EDA) to yield amino groups. As such, the magnetic poly(MMA-DVB-GMA) microspheres were prepared possessing monodispersity, uniform magnetic properties, and abundant surface amino groups. Then, the dendritic poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) shells were coated on the magnetic particles on the basis of the Michael addition of methyl acrylate and the amidation of the resulting ester with a large excess of EDA, which could achieve generational growth under such uniform stepwise reactions. For improving the luminescence properties of the composite particles, fluorescein isothiocyanate, which is a popular organic dye, was reacted with the terminal -NH2 groups from the dendritic PAMAM shells, resulting in the formation of multifunctional microspheres with excellent photoluminescence, superparamagnetic, and pH-sensitive properties. In this case, it can be expected that an extension of the functionalization of these microspheres is to immobilize other target molecules onto the PAMAM shells to introduce other desired functions for potential chemical and biological applications.     

The Preparation of Functionalized Crosslinked Macroporous Chitosan Microspheres and their Adsorption Properties for Bilirubin

Summary: glutaraldehyde cross-linked macroporous chitosan microspheres (CS) were prepared by inverse phase suspension reaction with sugar as porogenic agent. The microspheres were modified with different reagents of 1, 6 hexanediamine (HDA) and low generation polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers including PAMAM G1.0, PAMAM G2.0, PAMAM G3.0. The content of amino groups on CS, CS-PAMAM G1.0, CS-PAMAM G2.0, CS-PAMAM G3.0, CS-HDA was 3.56, 5.10, 5.47, 6.47, 4.66 mmol/g, respectively. The bilirubin adsorption on the above five microspheres was carried out in 0.05M phosphate buffer solution (pH = 7.2–7.4) at 37 °C. The results indicated all the modified CS microspheres were better than unmodified CS microspheres for bilirubin adsorption. CS-HDA has the best adsorption property even if the content of the amino groups was not very high.     

Synthesis of silica/carbon-encapsulated core-shell spheres: templates for other unique core-shell structures and applications in in situ loading of noble-metal nanoparticles

Silica@carbon core-shell spheres have been synthesized via a hydrothermal carbonization procedure with glucose as the carbon precursor and silica spheres as the cores. Such SiO(2)@C core-shell spheres can be further used as templates to produce SiO(2)@C@SiO(2), and SiO(2)@SiO(2) spheres with a vacant region in two SiO(2) shells, noble-metal nanoparticle loaded SiO(2)@C core-shell spheres, and hollow carbon capsules through different follow-up processes. The obtained core-shell materials possess remarkable chemical reactivity in reducing noble-metal ions to nanoparticles, e.g., platinum. These unique core-shell spherical composites could find applications in catalyst supports, adsorbents, encapsulation, nanoreactors, and reaction templates.

Preparation of PAMAM- and PPI-metal (silver, platinum, and palladium) nanocomposites and their catalytic activities for reduction of 4-nitrophenol

Dendrimer-metal (silver, platinum, and palladium) nanocomposites are prepared in aqueous solutions containing poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers with surface amino groups (generations 3, 4, and 5) or poly(propyleneimine) (PPI) dendrimers with surface amino groups (generations 2, 3, and 4). The particle sizes of the metal nanoparticles obtained are almost independent of the generation as well as the concentration of the dendrimer for both the PAMAM and the PPI dendrimers; the average sizes of silver, platinum, and palladium nanoparticles are 5.6-7.5, 1.2-1.6, and 1.6-2.0 nm, respectively. It is suggested that the dendrimer-metal nanocomposites are formed by adsorbing the dendrimers on the metal nanoparticles. Studies of the reduction reaction of 4-nitrophenol by these nanocomposites show that the rate constants are very similar between PAMAM and PPI dendrimer-silver nanocomposites, whereas the rate constants for the PPI dendrimer-platinum and -palladium nanocomposites are greater than those for the corresponding PAMAM dendrimer nanocomposites. In addition, it is found that the rate constants for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol involving all the dendrimer-metal nanocomposites decrease with an increase in the dendrimer concentrations, and the catalytic activity of dendrimer-palladium nanocomposites is highest.
