含二十二烷基聚氧乙烯醚甲基丙烯酸酯功能单体的缔合型乳液增稠剂的制备及表征

以甲基丙烯酸、丙烯酸乙酯、邻苯二甲酸二烯丙酯和不同量的功能单体二十二烷基聚氧乙烯醚甲基丙烯酸酯(BEM)为原料,采用半连续乳液聚合方法合成了疏水改性碱溶性缔合型增稠剂乳液.测定了增稠剂乳液的粘度、透光率、乳胶粒粒径及其分布等性能,考察了不同固含量下乳液粘度和透光率随pH的变化情况.结果表明随着BEM用量的增加,乳胶粒粒径逐渐增大.随着pH值的增加,乳液的粘度首先迅速升高,然后缓慢下降.与不含BEM的增稠剂乳液相比,当乳液固含量大于0.5%,BEM含量占单体量低于5.0wt%时,该缔合型增稠剂的增稠效果和抗剪切性有显著提高,BEM含量较高(8.0wt%或更高)时反而使增稠效果和抗剪切性变差.在此基础上研究了增稠剂对苯丙乳液的增稠效应,结果显示BEM含量占单体量的2.5wt%时,对苯丙乳液的增稠作用最好.与使用功能单体三苯乙基苯酚聚氧乙烯醚甲基丙烯酸酯改性的增稠剂相比,含BEM的增稠剂在BEM用量较少的情况下就能起到明显的增稠效果.

Viscoelastic behaviour of butyl acrylate/styrene/2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate/acrylic acid latices thickened with associative thickeners

The rheological behaviour of butyl acrylate/styrene/acrylic acid latices thickened with a hydrophobically modified ethoxylated polyurethane (HEUR) or hydrophobically modified alkali-soluble polyacrylate emulsion (HASE) was investigated. While the pseudoplastic character of frequency dependence of complex viscosity was similar for both thickeners, viscoelastic behaviour, expressed as the ratio of loss and storage moduli, significantly differed, indicating that the HEUR molecules, unlike swollen HASE particles, create a viscoelastic space structure. The increase in hydrophilicity of the particle surface, achieved by incorporation of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) monomer into the latex copolymer reduced the viscoelasticity of latices thickened with HEUR, but not of those thickened with HASE. This confirms that adsorption of hydrophobic end-groups on particle surface is important for thickening of latices with HEUR and that a physical network of latex particles interconnected by the thickener macromolecules is formed.

Influence of prepolymers molecular weight on the viscoelastic properties of aqueous HEUR solutions

A series of hydrophobically modified ethoxylated urethanes (HEURs) were synthesized by a step growth polymerization of polyethylene glycol with dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate (H12MDI). The thickeners were produced with different sizes of the hydrophilic section by changing the molar ratios of reactants. The size of the hydrophobic ends was constant for all prepared samples. The changes in hydrophilic lengths were correlated with the rheological properties of HEURs aqueous solutions. The intrinsic viscosity measurements showed that associates are present even at very low concentration. The response of these HEUR systems in aqueous solution to both steady shear and oscillatory shear was determined as a function of hydrophilic chain length and polymer concentration. Dramatic increases in viscosity are observed with decreasing molecular weight of the prepolymer (with a decrease of the hydrophilic components' size and at the same time an increased ratio between hydrophobic and hydrophilic sections of HEURs). Also, a steep increase in viscosity with increasing thickener concentration is obtained. The rheological properties of aqueous solutions of HEUR polymers can be described using a simple Maxwell model with a single relaxation. The dynamic measurements verified the results obtained from the steady state measurements about the hydrophilic section size and its effect on the association phenomenon.

Surfactant and Electrolyte Effects on Latex Depletion Flocculation by Thickeners

Summary: Polymer thickeners can induce good dispersion, bridging, or depletion flocculation of latexes depending on the polymer structure and concentration. Unlike non-associative polymers, associative polymers have the ability to create a good latex dispersion. However, when the associative interactions are destroyed, depletion flocculation of the latex can result. This happens when an excess of ionic surfactant is added to the system. In addition, the surfactant may associate with the thickener backbone, thus modifying the molecular volume of the polymer thickener. This paper explores the effect of anionic surfactant and electrolyte on the molecular volume of both associative and non-associative thickeners. Both HEUR and HASE structures are included. For HEUR thickeners, formation of a pseudo-polyelectrolyte through the association of anionic surfactant with the polyethylene oxide backbone is confirmed. Further, the ability of the thickener to depletion flocculate latexes as a function of surfactant and electrolyte is explored. Experimental critical flocculation concentrations (CFC) are compared to values expected based on molecular volume and potential energy calculations. A good correlation is found between molecular volume and CFC for a wide range of thickener compositions.     

Effect of Molecular Weight on Packing during Latex Film Formation

A UV-visible technique is used to study the evolution of transparency during film formation from latex particles. Latex particles with high and low molecular weight (HM and LM) polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) are used to prepare films. Two sets of films with different latex content were prepared from HM and LM particles separately, by annealing PMMA particles above the glass transition temperature. Transmitted photon intensity, I(tr), from HM and LM films increased as the annealing temperature was increased. The increase in the transmitted photon intensity is attributed to the latex content (film thickness) for the annealed film samples. It is suggested that as the latex particles are packed (film thickness is increased) fewer voids or cracks are formed in the films. Positive and negative absorption coefficients are measured below and above 210 and 180 degrees C annealing temperatures for the HM and LM films. Packing coefficients are obtained for films in various latex contents. It is observed that LM particles are packed much easier than HM particles. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.     

High solids content latexes with low viscosity

The effect of particle size distribution (PSD) on the solids content and viscosity of the multi-sized latex was investigated by blending mono-sized latexes and measuring their rheological properties. The results showed that the maximum packing (highest solids content) was observed at a weight fraction 80% of large particles with respect to total solids content for both bi-modal and tri-modal latexes, and the lowest viscosity was obtained when the ratio of large to medium to small particles was approximately 80/10/10 (by weight). A two-stage technique to prepare high solids multi-sized polymer latex was developed by using a polymer latex previously made as seed and by adding small amount of additional surfactants and/or second group of polymer particles. The PSD of the latex was optimized by varying the amount of the seed, the additional surfactants, and the second group of particles. Film forming latexes with high solids (>65%) and low viscosity were obtained. Received: 18 February 2000 Accepted: 30 September 2000     

Morphological phase behaviour under pressure of polycatenar mesogens with a perfluorinated moiety

Two polycatenar materials composed of a four-aromatic-ring core with a perfluorinated moiety attached in one terminal position through either butylene- or pentylene spacer groups, and three tetradecyloxy chains at the other end (abbreviated as 14PC₄F and 14PC₅F), were investigated to study the effect of pressure on the phase transition behaviour. A polarizing optical microscope equipped with a high pressure optical hot stage, was used for the purpose. The T vs. P phase diagrams of 14PC₄F and 14PC₅F were constructed in the pressure region up to 100 MPa. 14PC₄F showed the stable crystal (Cr₁)-columnar tetragonal (Col_tet)-smectic A (SmA)-columnar hexagonal (Col_h)-isoropic liquid (I) phase transition sequence under all pressures. 14PC₅F exhibited the phase sequence metastable crystal (Cr₂)-cubic (Cub)-Col_tet-SmA-I in a melt-cooled sample on heating under pressure. But when the melt-cooled Cr₂ sample was annealed at 52-54°C for 2-3 h, the stable crystal (Cr₁) was formed slowly, giving a stable Cr₁-Cub-Col_tet-SmA-I phase sequence. The temperature region of the stable cubic phase broadened with increasing pressure. Furthermore a new mesophase of 14PC₅F was pressure-induced between the I and SmA phases on cooling at pressures above about 16 MPa. Since the monotropic mesophase exhibited a texture very similar to that of the high temperature Col_h phase of 14PC₄F with planar orientation, the new phase was assigned at a high temperature columnar hexagonal phase of 14PC₅F.     

The enhanced diffusional mixing for latex immunoagglutination assay in a microfluidic device

Latex immunoagglutination assay in a microfluidic device is expected to be even easier than its large-sized, commercialized counterpart. However, such demonstration has had a limited success due to the difficulties in mixing in a microfluidic device, especially for the microparticles used in latex immunoagglutination assay. The primary goal of this work is to improve diffusional mixing towards the successful latex immunoagglutination in a microfluidic devices without any non-specific binding. To this end, SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate, an ionic surfactant) or Tween 80 (polyethylene sorbitol ester, a non-ionic surfactant) was added to the antibody-conjugated polystyrene (PS) microparticle suspension. These surfactant-added particle suspensions were mixed with the target antigen solution at the Y-junction of a microfluidic device. The immunoagglutination and the diffusion behavior were visually identified with an inverted light microscope. Both surfactants showed some problems such as non-specific binding (with SDS) or very poor diffusion (with Tween 80). As an alternative approach, therefore, highly carboxylated PS microparticles, where the surface is saturated with carboxyl-terminated side chains, were evaluated without using any surfactants. These particles showed very low non-specific binding comparable to that with Tween 80 and good diffusional mixing equivalent to that with SDS.     

Rheological properties of a telechelic associative polymer in the presence of alpha- and methylated beta-cyclodextrins

The viscosity of hydrophobic ethoxylated urethane (HEUR) solution decreased in the presence of alpha-CD or m-beta-CD; however their interactions were quite different. When the alpha-CD/hydrophobe molar ratio exceeded 5.0, the viscosity was close to that of a PEO solution of similar molecular weight. Oscillatory shear indicated that the mechanically active chains in HEUR solution decreased with the addition of alpha-CD. This agreed with the hypothesis that alpha-CD formed an inclusion complex with the hydrophobic moiety of the HEUR polymer, thereby destroying the transient hydrophobic associative network. The viscosity/temperature relationship of the alpha-CD/HEUR system (for HEUR with 70% of the PEO chains capped at both ends) did not obey the Arrhenius relationship for alpha-CD/hydrophobe molar ratio in the range 0.8-5.0. The low shear viscosity increased with increasing temperature at molar ratio of 1.0, and this was attributed to the competitive complexation of the alpha-CD/hydrophobe and the alpha-CD/PEO chain. Increasing temperature favored alpha-CD/PEO complexation. Comparison between the behavior of alpha-CD/HEUR and m-beta-CD/HEUR resulting from the different binding characteristics was discussed.
