Problems solved by technology

However, the first type of photoresponsive microspheres is not easy to precisely control the proportion and properties of the hydrophobic part of the polymer, so the disintegration of the microspheres under ultraviolet light is often not complete enough, and the response is not effective enough.
Although the second type of light-responsive microspheres respond completely, their response behavior is irreversible. Once the microspheres disintegrate, they cannot be regenerated. At the same time, the covalent bonds need to be destroyed to detach the hydrophobic part from the main chain by light, which requires high energy and energy. For a long time, this will undoubtedly limit the application range of light-controlled microspheres and increase their preparation costs

Embodiment 1

[0024]Sodium alginate-tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide complex was dissolved in MES solution (concentration: 5%), and stirred for 30 minutes to obtain polymer-formed microspheres. Then adjust the pH of the liquid to 14, add α-cyclodextrin (concentration is 5%), and then add monocarboxy azobenzene (concentration is 1.25%) to the system to obtain polyelectrolyte with UV-visible light response Microspheres. The structure and size of the polymer microspheres are shown in the attached figure 2 Scanning microscope photographs are shown.

[0025] Response to ultraviolet-visible light: when the obtained microsphere system was placed under a 500W ultraviolet lamp for 10 minutes, the light transmittance of the system increased from 65% to 95%, indicating that the microspheres in the system disintegrated. After being placed under a 500W incandescent lamp for 10 minutes again, the light transmittance of the system dropped from 95% to 55%, indicating that the microspheres were regene...

Embodiment 2

[0027] Polyacrylic acid grafted with dodecyl (grafting rate 15%) was dissolved in water to prepare an aqueous solution with a concentration of 1.5%, and stirred for 3 hours to form microspheres. Then add hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin (concentration: 1%) and stir to dissolve it. Then add dicarboxy azobenzene (concentration: 0.125%) into the system to obtain polyelectrolyte microspheres with ultraviolet-visible light response.

[0028] Response to ultraviolet-visible light: when the obtained microsphere system was placed under a 200W ultraviolet lamp for 1 hour and a minute, the light transmittance of the system increased from 50% to 90%, indicating that the microspheres in the system disintegrated. After being placed under a 200W incandescent lamp for 1 hour and a minute again, the light transmittance of the system dropped from 90% to 60%, indicating that the microspheres were regenerated. The process of disintegration and formation of microspheres can be repeated many times wi...

Embodiment 3

[0030] The tetradecyl-grafted polylysine was dissolved in an aqueous solution (the concentration of sodium alginate was 0.5%), and stirred for 3 hours to form microspheres. Then adjust the pH of the above liquid to 4, add α-cyclodextrin (concentration: 3%), and stir to dissolve it. Then add monohydroxy azobenzene (concentration is 0.75%) to the system to obtain polyelectrolyte microspheres with ultraviolet-visible light response.

[0031] Response to ultraviolet-visible light: when the obtained microsphere system was placed under a 600W ultraviolet lamp for 10 minutes, the light transmittance of the system increased from 40% to 79%, indicating that the microspheres in the system disintegrated. When placed under a 200W incandescent lamp again for 1 hour and a minute, the light transmittance of the system dropped from 79% to 47%, indicating that the microspheres were regenerated. The process of disintegration and formation of microspheres can be repeated many times with the cha...

Abstract

The invention discloses a photoresponsive polymer microsphere system and a preparation method thereof. The system is a solution containing cyclodextrin, an azo compound having cis-trans isomerism respectively under the irradiation of ultraviolet light and visible light, and amphiphilic polyelectrolyte containing a hydrophobic alkyl chain. Polymer microspheres are generated when the system is under the irradiation of visible light, and the polymer microspheres in the system are decomposed under the irradiation of ultraviolet light. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: dissolving the amphiphilic polyelectrolyte in a solvent; completely stirring a microsphere solution; and then adding cyclodextrin and stirring for dissolving cyclodextrin; and finally adding the azo compound to obtain the photoresponsive polymer microsphere system after the azo compound is dissolved. The photoresponsive polymer microsphere system provided by the invention has the characteristics that the preparation conditions are moderate, the formation and decomposition of microspheres are reversible, quick and controllable. The photoresponsive polymer microsphere system has a bright application prospect in the biomedicine field such as medicine transfer, medicine slow release and the like, as well the anti-counterfeiting filed relating to trademarks, bills, even military industry, national defense and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of intelligent polymer materials (responsive polymer materials), in particular to a responsive polymer microsphere with potential application value in the fields of surfactants, biomedicine, confidential transmission, trademarks, banknote anti-counterfeiting, etc. System materials and their implementation methods. Background technique [0002] In recent years, polymeric microspheres, especially those formed by self-assembly of amphiphilic (hydrophobic and hydrophilic) polymers, have attracted great research interest. Compared with microspheres formed by low molecular weight surfactants, amphiphilic polymer microspheres have the advantages of lower critical microsphere concentration and more stable thermodynamics (Supramol.Sci., 1996, 3, 157-163; Langmuir, 2002 , 18, 3780-3786; Biomacromoles, 2005, 6, 1154-1158.). Therefore, it has broad application prospects (Discher, D.E.; Eisenberg, A.Science 2002,297,967; Haag, R...
