Abstract:The design and fabrication of novel poly(N-benzophenoyl methacrylamide-co-N-hydroxyethyl acrylamide)@SiO(2) composites are reported herein. These core-shell composites demonstrate orthogonal functionality, composed of photoreactive cores, containing a benzophenone (BPh) moiety and silica (SiO(2)) shells, enabling the utilization of the free hydroxyl groups via silane-based chemistry. The co-polymer cores, which are 1.28μm in diameter, are first obtained by dispersion polymerization of photoreactive (N-benzophenoyl methacrylamide) (polyBPMA) and N-Hydroxyethyl acrylamide (HEAA). Next, silica seeds with a 42nm diameter are deposited onto the surfaces as a result of the hydrolysis and the condensation of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) in a basic condition. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FT-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), UV-spectrophotometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and ζ-potential measurements were used to characterize the composites. The morphology and surface smoothness of the deposited silica nanoparticles (NPs) were found to strongly depend on a number of parameters such as the pH value of the medium, TEOS concentration, and the temperature.
