Preparation of monodisperse poly(methyl methacrylate) microspheres: effect of reaction parameters on particle formation, and optical performances of its diffusive agent application

A 3.84 um monodisperse poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) microsphere was prepared by dispersion polymerization in methanol (MeOH)/water (H₂O) media. 2,2′-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were utilized as initiator and steric stabilizer, respectively. The effects of the PAA stabilizer, AIBN initiator, H₂O solvent and MMA monomer on PMMA particle size and size distribution were reviewed in the first section. The optical properties including total transmittance (T%) and transmittance haze (H%) were performed when the monodisperse PMMA microsphere was applied as a diffusive agent. The result was examined in terms of total interface area in system, and to compare with the performance of three polystyrene (PSt) microspheres with 1.10 um, 3.13 um and 5.21 um in diameter under the same condition.     

Monodispersed thermoresponsive hydrogel microspheres with a volume phase transition driven by hydrogen bonding

We report the synthesis and characterization of monodispersed thermoresponsive hydrogel microspheres with a volume phase transition driven by hydrogen bonding. The prepared microspheres, composed of poly(acrylamide-co-styrene) (poly(AAM-co-St)) cores and poly(acrylamide)/poly(acrylic acid) (PAAM/PAAC) based interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) shells, were featured with high monodispersity and positively thermoresponsive volume phase transition characteristics with tunable swelling kinetics, i.e. the particle swelling was induced by an increase rather than a decrease in temperature. The monodisperse poly(AAM-co-St) seeds were prepared by emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization, the PAAM or poly(acrylamide-co-butyl methacrylate) (poly(AAM-co-BMA)) shells were fabricated on the seeds by free radical polymerization, and the core-shell microspheres with PAAM/PAAC based IPN shells were finished by a method of sequential IPN synthesis. The microsphere size increased with increasing both AAM and BMA dosages. The increase of hydrophilic monomer AAM dosage resulted in a better monodispersity, but the increase of hydrophobic monomer BMA dosage led to a worse monodispersity. With increasing the crosslinker methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) dosage, the mean diameter of the microspheres decreased and the monodispersity became better. An equimolar composition of AAC and AAM in the IPN shells of the microspheres resulted in a more complete shrinkage for the microspheres at temperatures lower than the upper critical solution temperature. Both BMA and MBA additions depressed the swelling ratio of the hydrodynamic diameter of the microspheres.     

Stable poly(glycidyl methacrylate‐co‐ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) microspheres via precipitation polymerization

Narrow‐dispersion or monodisperse with stable and smooth surface polymer microspheres were prepared without a significant coagulum by precipitation polymerization in the absence of any stabilizer. The monomer glycidyl metharylate (GMA) was copolymerized with ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as crosslinker by precipitation polymerization technique with 2,2′‐azobisisobutyronitrile as initiator in neat acetonitrile. The effects of the content of EGDMA on the polymerization characteristics and size/uniformity of the microspheres were investigated. The onset of the thermal degradation temperature at higher temperature and the swelling test suggest that the prepared particles were highly crosslinked. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Photoinitiated dispersion polymerization using polyurethane based macrophotoinitiator as stabilizer and photoinitiator

Polyurethane based macrophotoinitiator (PU-PI) had been designed and synthesized, and applied to photoinitiated dispersion polymerization of methyl methacrylate as both photoinitiator and stabilizer, with ethanol/water mixture as reaction medium. Monomer conversion over 90% was achieved within 25 min of UV irradiation at room temperature, and monodisperse PMMA microspheres were obtained. The structure of the microspheres had been analyzed by XPS, showing that about 50% of surface of the microspheres were covered with the stabilizer. PU-PI effectively stabilized the polymeric particles in photoinitiated dispersion polymerization due to the unique stabilization process. The size and size distribution of the microspheres became insensitive to the reaction condition such as stabilizer/initiator concentration, initial monomer concentration and reaction medium. The size of the microspheres obtained changed in the range from 0.88 μm to 1.06 μm at different reaction condition, with polydispersity index as low as 1.011. The research may provide a quick and facile approach to prepare monodisperse microspheres with tailored functional surface.     

Preparation of narrow‐dispersion or monodisperse polymer microspheres with active hydroxyl group by distillation–precipitation polymerization

Narrow‐dispersion or monodisperse polymer microspheres with active hydroxyl groups were prepared by distillation–precipitation polymerization in the absence of any stabilizer. The monomer hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) was copolymerized with either commercial divinylbenzene (DVB) (containing 80 % of DVB isomers) or ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as crosslinker by distillation–precipitation polymerization technique with 2,2′‐azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator in neat acetonitrile. The effects of the crosslinker and the crosslinking degree on the morphology and the loading of the active hydroxyl group of the resultant microspheres were investigated. The agitation caused by distilling off a portion of the polymerization solvent during the polymerization avoided coagulation and resulted in the narrow‐dispersion or monodisperse polymer microspheres for the distillation precipitation technique.

Preparation of monodisperse fluorescent core–shell polymer microspheres with functional groups in the shell layer by two‐stage distillation–precipitation polymerization

Monodisperse crosslinked core–shell micrometer‐sized microspheres bearing a brightly blue fluorescent dye, carbazole, and containing various functional groups in the shell layers were prepared by a two‐stage distillation–precipitation polymerization in acetonitrile in the absence of any stabilizer. Commercial divinylbenzene (DVB), containing 80 vol.% of DVB, was polymerized by distillation–precipitation in acetonitrile without any stabilizer using 2,2′‐azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as the initiator for the first stage of polymerization which resulted in monodisperse polyDVB microspheres used as the core. Several functional monomers, including 2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate and acrylonitrile together with N‐vinylcarbazole blue fluorescent comonomer, were incorporated into the shell layers with AIBN as initiator during the second stage of polymerization. The resultant core–shell polymer microspheres were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV‐visible spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy.
