Homogenously dispersed TiO2/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composite microspheres were produced in the size range of 1-10µm and the interfacial characteristics of TiO2 and PMMA in suspension polymerization were considered. In electron microscopy observation, it was found that TiO2 nanoparticles were embedded homogeneously in the PMMA phase. This study elucidates that the interfacial compatibility between TiO2 and PMMA played a decisive role in producing the composite microspheres structured with inner TiO2 and continuous PMMA, which was achieved by treating the surface of the TiO2 particles hydrophobically. The TiO2/PMMA composite microspheres produced showed good ability to protect against UV rays and are therefore of great usefulness in cosmetic formulations. 相似文献
Crosslinked glycidylmethacrylate-methylmethacrylate-divinylbenzen (GMA-MMA-DVB) microspheres were prepared by suspension polymerization. The GMA-MMA-DVB microspheres with an average size of 150–300 μm and surface area of 1.51 m2g?1 were functionalized with 2-aminothiazole (ATAL). The affinity of the functionalized microspheres for copper, iron, aluminum, lead, cobalt, and nickel ions was examined. The effects of pH, resin amount, shaking time, type, and volume of the elution solution on the sorption and desorption properties of functionalized microspheres for these metal ions were investigated using the batch method. Sorption capacities (0.97–1.12 mmolg?1), quantitation limits (2.6–3.0 ppb) and recoveries (90–99%) were calculated. 相似文献
AbstractIn this research, hydrophilic molecularly imprinted microspheres (HMIPs) for azoxystrobin were successfully synthesized through precipitation polymerization. The adsorption capacities of HMIPs for azoxystrobin in water medium were higher than ordinary molecularly imprinted microspheres (MIPs), and HMIPs exhibited good hydrophilic properties. HMIPs and non-imprinted microspheres (HNIPs) were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, laser particle size analyzer and TGA. Comparing with HNIPs, azoxystrobin had a significant influence on morphologys and sizes of HMIPs. The Langmuir adsorption isotherm illustrated each binding site of HMIPs had the same adsorption capacity. The Lagergran pseudo-second-order kinetic model indicated the adsorption process between azoxystrobin and HMIPs was chemical adsorption. BET test illustrated HMIPs had bigger specific surface areas than HNIPs. Selective adsorption indicated that HMIPs had highly specific recognition of azoxystrobin. HMIPs successfully exhibited high selectivity and high hydrophilicity in water medium. 相似文献
PDMAAm microspheres have been obtained by inverse suspension, inverse emulsion, and dispersion polymerization. Conventional inverse suspension polymerization in toluene/trichloroethene is modified by the use of ultrasound. The resulting hydrogel microspheres are examined by dynamic light scattering and scanning electron microscopy to afford the morphology, dispersity, and size of the microspheres. Inverse suspension polymerization yields 100‐µm particles, while those obtained by inverse emulsion polymerization are 0.13–1 µm in diameter. While the inverse techniques produce particles of broad size distribution, monodisperse microspheres are obtained by the Kraton G 1650‐stabilized dispersion polymerization of DMAAm in a toluene/heptane medium. The particle size and polydispersity could be controlled by the addition of water into the dispersed phase, and by varying the cellulose acetate butyrate or Kraton G 1650 concentration and the toluene/trichloroethene or toluene/heptane ratio.
Polystyrene (PS) microspheres coated with β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) were fabricated via γ‐ray‐induced emulsion polymerization in a ternary system of styrene/β‐CD/water (St/β‐CD/water). The solid inclusion complex of St and β‐CD particles formed at the St droplets–water interface can stabilize the emulsion as the surfactant. TEM and XPS results showed that β‐CD remains on the surface of PS particles. The average size of the PS particles increases from 186 to 294 nm as the weight ratio of β‐CD to St rises from 5% to 12.5%. The water contact angle (CA) of PS latex film is lower than 90°, and reduces with the β‐CD content even to 36°. Thus, this work provides a new and one‐pot strategy to surface hydrophilic modification on hydrophobic polymer particles with cyclodextrins through radiation emulsion polymerization. 相似文献
Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/silver nanocomposite microspheres with unique multihollow structures were prepared by suspension
polymerization in the presence of dual dispersion agents. The addition of a lipophilic emulsifier, polyethylene glycol (30EO)
dipolyhydroxystearate (Arlacel P135), not only stabilized water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion, but also converted silver nanoparticles
from hydrophilic to lipophilic. When a suspension polymerization dispersion agent, poly(vinyl alcohol), was added to the above
W/O emulsion system, a water-in-oil-in-water suspension was formed with silver nanoparticles dispersed in the oil phase. The
suspension polymerization was carried out at low temperature with 2,2’-azobis(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile) as the initiator.
When modified silver nanoparticles were added, the rate of polymerization increased slightly. High monomer conversion (about
85%) was obtained in spite of low polymerization temperature of 30 °C. Under controlled conditions, PMMA/silver microspheres
with various hollow structures were synthesized. The PMMA/silver microspheres with multihollow structure showed high antibacterial
ability. 相似文献
A seeded polymerization method based on a new functional monomer, 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPMA-Cl), was proposed for the synthesis of a new type of monodisperse porous, hydrophilic microspheres with reactive character. By applying the method, poly(3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) (poly(HPMA-Cl-co-EDMA)) microspheres in the range of 4–7 μm, with specific surface areas between 2 and 146 m2/g, were obtained. The microspheres are hydrophilic in nature due to the hydroxyl groups and are easily derivatizable due to the reactive chloropropyl moiety. Ligands in the form of small molecules carrying hydrophobic alkyl or hydrophilic ion exchanger groups were covalently attached onto the microspheres via simple and one-pot reactions via their chloropropyl functionality. Using the same functionality, click chemistry and surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization were also applied for the generation of triazole ring and zwitterionic molecular brushes on the microspheres, respectively. Poly(HPMA-Cl-co-EDMA) microspheres seem to be a promising hydrophilic reactive material particularly for the synthesis of ion exchanger resins and chromatographic stationary phases. 相似文献
In this study, a novel and effective suspension polymerization has been employed to prepare functional magnetic porous SrFe12O19/P(St-DVB-MAA) microspheres in the presence of bilayer surfactants (sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) and oleic acid
(OA)) coated on micro-size magnetic SrFe12O19. This was achieved by pre-polymerizing the organic phase, which contained co-monomers, porogens and treated magnetic particles,
at 65°C for 0.5 h under ultrasound conditions. Aqueous solutions containing a dispersion agent were then added to effect suspension
polymerization. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD),
thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and magnetic property measurement system (MPMS) were used to characterize the functional
magnetic porous microspheres. The results show that the microparticles are well shaped with a uniform size distribution of
about 0.5 ∼ 0.7 mm and the surfaces of the microspheres have many micro-pores with an average diameter of 0.533 μm. There
are carboxyl groups (−COOH) on the surface of the microspheres to the extent of 0.65 mmol g−1, as determined by conductometric titration. According to the XRD spectra, iron oxide consists mainly of SrFe12O19 which reveals hexahedral structure. The content of magnetic SrFe12O19 reaches 17.81% (by mass), and the microspheres have good heat resistance. The magnetic porous microspheres are ferromagnetic
with high residual magnetization and coercivity, 21.59 emu g−1 and 4.13 kOe, respectively. The saturation magnetisation is around 42.85 emu g−1.

Poly(acrylamide-co-itaconic acid) (P(AM-co-IA)) hydrogel microspheres were prepared via inverse suspension polymerization method. DLS results showed the formation of the monodispersed hydrogel microspheres. The size of the hydrogel microspheres could be controlled by polymerization parameters. Absorbencies of P(AM-co-IA) microspheres in water and saline were investigated and calculated by size changes of each particle before and after swelling. The results showed that P(AM-co-IA) had high absorbencies, the weight of swollen particles was above 4000 times to that of the original dried microspheres. The superabsorbent hydrogel microspheres might find the potential applications in the fields of soil amendments, water shutoff agents, and drug delivery carriers. 相似文献
The studies on control of heterogeneous structure of porous polymer microspheres prepared for suspension polymerization system and preformed polymer system in author’s research group were reviewed. Firstly, the phase-separation behavior in O/W suspension polymerization system for preparation of porous poly(divinylbenzene) microspheres was quantitatively studied by combining transmittance and gelation point measurement, from which the morphology can be manipulated. The same method can be employed to study the pore size control in W/O hydrophilic polymerization system. Because the simple porous microsphere could not satisfy new applications, we developed new methods to prepare gigaporous microsphere, which possessed much larger pores than those obtained by general diluents, for chromatographic separation media, as well as hollow-porous microsphere for construction of cell-like microreactor. Furthermore, in order to overcome the difficulty of heterogeneous structure control for preformed polymer system, we developed special methods to obtain porous, hollow-porous, and hollow chitosan microspheres. Finally, some application results by utilizing special morphologies were introduced. 相似文献
This study demonstrates the surface modification of thermally expandable core/shell microspheres by grafting glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) using activators regenerated by electron transfer (ARGET) ATRP. To retain the expansion properties it was essential to minimize the shear forces, use solvents compatible with the microspheres and keep the reaction times short (three hours or less). Using microspheres with hydroxyl groups on the surface, it was found that after converting these to α-bromo esters, GMA could be grafted by ARGET ATRP using only 50 ppm of copper catalyst in toluene at 30 °C. Decent control of the polymerization was achieved with PMDETA as ligand reaching PDIs of 1.4 for the solution polymerization of GMA. When microspheres were present, the polymerization was less controlled with higher PDIs. The epoxide groups of the grafted microspheres were hydrolyzed by HCl in THF providing a hydrophilic surface of the microsphere. The expansion property of the microspheres was studied after each reaction step by thermal mechanical analysis, and it was found that the expansion capacity was well preserved with only limited negative effect on the microspheres. 相似文献
Polystyrene core microspheres of narrow-size distribution were prepared by dispersion polymerization of styrene in a mixture
of ethanol and 2-methoxy ethanol. Polystyrene/polychloromethylstyrene and polystyrene/poly(chloromethylstyrene-divinylbenzene)
core-shell microspheres of narrow-size distribution were prepared by seeded emulsion polymerization of chloromethylstyrene
or chloromethylstyrene and divinylbenzene in the presence of the polystyrene core microspheres at 71 °C. Core-shell particles
with different properties (size, surface morphology, and composition) have been prepared by changing various parameters belonging
to the emulsion polymerization process, e.g., volume of the chloromethylstyrene and the volume ratio of chloromethylstyrene
to divinylbenzene. Dissolution of the polystyrene core of the polystyrene/poly(chloromethylstyrene-divinylbenzene) core-shell
particles resulted in the formation of crosslinked hollow polychloromethylstyrene microspheres, broken crosslinked polychloromethylstyrene
shells, or particles containing voids, depending on the composition of the polystyrene/poly(chloromethylstyrene-divinylbenzene)
particles. 相似文献
