以氯丁胶乳（Pa）为种子乳液,甲基丙烯酸甲酯（Pb）为第二单体,采用种子乳液聚合法,制备了氯丁胶乳-聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯复合乳胶粒。 热力学分析表明,当Pb的体积分数Φb＜0.69时,可同时形成Pa-Pb型正核-壳和（Pa＋Pb）分离型乳胶粒,当Φb＞0.69时,形成Pb-Pa型翻转型核壳结构乳胶粒,并伴有Pa-Pb型正核-壳结构乳胶粒的形成。 动力学分析表明,引发剂类型、第二单体的加入方式、种子乳胶粒的交联、单体/聚合物质量比是影响乳胶粒形态的主要因素。 采用水溶性引发剂过二硫酸钾（KPS）,以饥饿态方式加入单体,氯丁胶乳 聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(PCR-PMMA)复合乳胶粒呈现正核-壳结构,以充溢态方式加入单体则不能形成明显的核-壳结构;而以油溶性偶氮二异丁腈（AIBN）为引发剂时,单体无论以充溢态方式加入还是饥饿态加入均倾向于形成翻转核-壳型粒子。 在种子乳胶粒中加入一定量交联剂二缩三乙二醇二甲基丙烯酸酯,有利于形成明显的正核壳结构。 以饥饿态进料,KPS为引发剂时,随着单体用量增加,壳层变厚,仍呈正核-壳结构,与热力学分析结果相吻合;以AIBN为引发剂时,随着单体用量增加,PCR-PMMA复合乳胶粒逐渐由翻转核壳型结构变为互穿结构。

The formation mechanism of poly(vinyl acetate)/poly(butyl acrylate) core/shell latex in two-stage seeded semi-continuous starved emulsion polymerization process

In this paper, the morphological evolution of latex particles on poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc)/poly(butyl acrylate) (PBA) in two-stage seeded semi-continuous starved emulsion polymerization is studied, and the thermodynamic analysis and a mathematic model are derived to describe the interfacial free energy changes corresponding to various possible thermodynamically unstable morphologies during the polymerization process. The comparisons between the morphological evolution and the related thermodynamic analysis show that the morphological evolution of latex particles is oriented to the thermodynamic preferred morphology which is an inverted core/shell structure with PBA as core and PVAc as shell. Based on the comparisons, the possible morphological developmental pathway of PVAc/PBA core/shell latex is described. The possible morphological developmental pathway suggests that the observed multi-particle morphology in the polymerization process is due to restricted chain mobility related to high internal viscosity. The formation mechanism of PVAc/PBA core/shell latex, based on the experiments as well as the thermodynamic and dynamic analyses, is proposed, which signifies that PBA is first formed outside the PVAc seed and then migrate to the inside of the PVAc seed.     

Modification of Adhesive and Latex Properties for Starch Nanoparticle‐Based Pressure Sensitive Adhesives

Starch nanoparticle (SNP)‐based pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs) with core‐shell particle morphology (starch nanoparticle core/acrylic polymer shell) are produced via seeded, semi‐batch emulsion polymerization at 15 wt% SNP loading (relative to total polymer weight) and 40 wt% latex solids. Crosslinker and chain transfer agent (CTA) are introduced to the acrylic shell polymer formulation at a range of concentrations according to a 3² factorial design to tailor the latex and adhesive properties of SNP‐based latexes. The crosslinker and CTA show no significant effect on polymerization kinetics, particle size, and viscosity. Latex gel content is predicted using an empirical model, which is a function of crosslinker and CTA concentration. Both the gel content and glass transition temperature strongly affect the adhesive properties (tack, peel strength, and shear strength) of the SNP‐based latex films. 3D response surfaces for the adhesive properties are constructed to facilitate the design of SNP‐based PSAs with desired properties.     

Highly magnetic latexes from submicrometer oil in water ferrofluid emulsions

The synthesis of functionalized submicrometer magnetic latex particles is described as obtained from a preformed magnetic emulsion composed of organic ferrofluid droplets dispersed in water. Composite (polystyrene/γ‐Fe₂O₃) particles were prepared according to a two‐step procedure including the swelling of ferrofluid droplets with styrene and a crosslinking agent (divinyl benzene) followed by seeded emulsion polymerization with either an oil‐soluble [2,2′‐azobis(2‐isobutyronitrile)] or water‐soluble (potassium persulfate) initiator. Depending on the polymerization conditions, various particle morphologies were obtained, ranging from asymmetric structures, for which the polymer phase was separated from the inorganic magnetic phase, to regular core–shell morphologies showing a homogeneous encapsulation of the magnetic pigment by a crosslinked polymeric shell. The magnetic latexes were extensively characterized to determine their colloidal and magnetic properties. The desired core–shell structure was efficiently achieved with a given styrene/divinyl benzene ratio, potassium persulfate as the initiator, and an amphiphilic functional copolymer as the ferrofluid droplet stabilizer. Under these conditions, ferrofluid droplets were successfully turned into superparamagnetic polystyrene latex particles, about 200 nm in size, containing a large amount of iron oxide (60 wt %) and bearing carboxylic surface charges. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Preparation of sulphonate-containing core/shell latex particles via seeded emulsion copolymerization

<正>In this study,P(St-MAA) seed latex particles were first prepared via soap-free emulsion polymerization of styrene(St) and methacrylic acid(MAA),then the seed particles were allowed to swell with St at room temperature,and the P(St-MAA)/P(StNaSS) core/shell latex particles were then synthesized via seeded emulsion copolymerization of St and sodium styrene sulphonate (NaSS) using AIBN as initiator in the presence of N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide(BAA,water-soluble crosslinker).Results showed that the polymerization could be carried out smoothly when the ratio of BAA to total monomers was less than 3 mol%,the narrow dispersed P(St-MAA) seed particles with the diameter of 150 nm and the P(St-MAA)/P(St-NaSS) core/shell latexes with the particle size of about 200 nm were synthesized.When the 25/75 mole ratio of NaSS/(St + MAA) and 2 mol%of BAA were used in the seeded emulsion polymerization,the resulted P(St-MAA)/P(St-NaSS) latex product showed a low weight loss after water extraction,and the NaSS unit content in the whole particle and in the shell reached 11.7 mol%and 34.6 mol%,respectively.     

Morphology and grafting reactions in core/shell latexes

The particle morphology and percent grafting were investigated as a function of the crosslink density of the seed latex in two systems of core/shell latexes of polybutadiene/polymethyl methacrylate (PB/PMMA) and styrene–butadiene rubber/polymethyl methacrylate (SBR/PMMA) prepared by seeded emulsion polymerization at 50°C. The thin layer chromatography/flame ionization detection (TLC/FID) technique was used to characterize the grafting efficiency of the core/shell latexes. The percent grafting of the shell polymer was found to decrease with increasing the crosslink density of the core material. The particle morphology and precent grafting were also investigated as a function of composition and structure of the core material in four core/shell latex systems: polybutadiene/styrene–acrylonitrile copolymer (PB/SAN), (styrene-butadiene) random copolymer/styrene acrylonitrile copolymer (S:B/SAN), polystyrene : polybutadiene/styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer (PS:PB/SAN) and Kraton/styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer (Kraton/SAN), which were prepared by direct emulsification for the seed followed by emulsion polymerization at 70°C for the shell polymer. Grafting and crosslinking of the core material were found to be competitive reactions depending on the microstructure of the seed latex.     

Effect of Monomer Feeding Mode on thePreparation of Hollow Latexes with High MAA Content in the Core Latex Preparation简

In order to prepare hollow latex particles with optimum morphology based on osmotic swelling principle, three- layer core/shell latex particles with 40 wt% MAA in the core were first prepared via multistep seeded emulsion copolymerization, in which monomers were added by a semi-continuous process with monomer addition under two different forms： pure monomers＇ mixture （monomer addition）, and pre-emulsified monomers （pre-emulsion addition）. Then, the hollow latex particles with different morphologies were obtained after alkali post-treatment. Influences of the monomer feeding mode on the emulsion polymerization and the particle morphology were investigated. Results showed that the pre- emulsion addition could significantly improve the polymerization stability in each step, and greatly enhance the uniformity of shell encapsulation. The sizes of the core and core/shell latex particles obtained by the pre-emulsion addition were smaller and more uniform than those synthesized by the monomer addition, and the hollow latex particles with intact morphology were generated by alkali post-treating of the core/shell latexes prepared from the pre-emulsion addition. As the core size increased, the morphology of the post-treated particles underwent evolution from hollow to collapse. Moreover, the mechanism of the particle morphological evolution was proposed.     

The morphology of composite polymer particles produced by multistage soapless seeded emulsion polymerization

 Composite polymer particles which contain poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polystyrene (PS) components (PMMA/PS composite particle) were synthesized by the method of multistage soapless seeded emulsion polymerization. In this study, the process of multistage soapless seeded emulsion polymerization included two-stage polymerization, three-stage polymerization or four-stage polymerization. The morphologies of the PMMA/PS composite particles were studied. The kinetic factor was the main force to control the morphology of the linear PMMA–PS composite particles which were synthesized by the method of two-stage reaction. Both the kinetic factor and the thermodynamic factor decide the morphology of the linear composite particles which were synthesized by the method of either three-stage or four-stage reaction. However, the thermodynamic factor cannot influence the morphology of the PMMA/PS composite particles with a cross-linked structure which were synthesized by the method of three-stage reaction. The cross-linked composite polymer particles had the morphology of a multilayer structure, which showed that the polymer layers accumulated in their order of production.

Effect of the Shell Crosslinking Level andCore/Shell Ratio on the Morphology of LatexParticles in the Preparation of Hollow Latexes简

Three-layer core/shell latex particles with various shell crosslinking level and shell thickness were prepared by multistep emulsion polymerization, and the hollow latex particles with different morphologies were then obtained after alkali post-treatment. Influences of divinyl benzene(DVB) content and the core/shell mass ratio on emulsion polymerization and particle morphology were investigated. Results showed that with the increase of DVB content, the percentage of total amount of ―COOH on the particle surface and free in aqueous phase(PSFa) decreased, and the morphology of the post-treated particles underwent evolution from cracked, intact hollow to deficient swelling structure. Decreasing the core/shell mass ratio could not only make more carboxyl groups encapsulated by the shell, but also increase the shell resistance to the swelling of the core. The uniform hollow latex particles with intact morphology were obtained when the DVB content was 3.54 wt% and the core/shell mass ratio was 1/6.     

Preparation and Characterization of Polymer Core Shell Latex Particles

Stable core‐shell latex was synthesized by semicontinuous seeded emulsion polymerization with core monomers consisting of styrene (St), butyl acrylate (BA), and shell monomers consisting of methyl methacrylate (MMA), eutyl acrylate (EA), and methacrylic acid (MAA). The effects of compound emulsifier amount, mass ratio of anionic/nonionic emulsifier, and initiator amount on latex performance were investigated. By particle size analysis and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation, results suggest that final latex particles have clearly core shell structures.
