Problems solved by technology

When it is necessary to obtain as many polymers as possible (to increase the yield), one of the common practices in the art is to increase the amount of initiator in the reaction system; however, in the redox initiation system, when the amount of redox initiator exceeds When the concentration is 4%, it will cause nucleation and growth too fast, resulting in uneven microspheres, and it is impossible to achieve the uniformity of microsphere yield and morphology

Embodiment 1

[0036] Embodiment 1 prepares macromolecule RAFT reagent PAA-TTC

[0037] Acrylic acid (AA) (14.41 g, 200 mmol), DDMAT (0.1826 g, 0.5 mmol), AIBN (8.23 mg, 0.05 mmol) and anhydrous 1,4-dioxane (48.6 g) were added to a 150 mL one-necked flask , [AA] / [DDMAT] / [AIBN]=400 / 1 / 0.1, the solution was degassed with nitrogen for 30 minutes, and then immersed in a preheated oil bath at 70°C for 2 hours, by immersing the flask in ice water , and then expose it to air. The monomer conversion reached 61.8% (1,3,5-trioxane as internal standard, measured by 1H NMR). This polymer was precipitated into diethyl ether and purified by a precipitation / filtration cycle. After drying at room temperature under vacuum, a pale yellow PAA-TTC polymer powder (6.9 g, 47.9%) was obtained.

[0038] The structural formula of PAA-TTC is as follows, the molecular weight is about 17K

[0040] Embodiment 2 prepares polymer microsphere

[0041] The weight ratio of ethanol / water mixture 40 / 60 (7.2g+10.8g) was introduced into a 25mL round bottom flask as a solvent, then 2.0g of MMA monomer (10wt% relative to the system), 0.30g of stable dispersant PAA-TTC (15% relative to the monomer), 0.005 g of DDMAT (0.25% relative to the monomer), magnetically stirred to dissolve. The reaction mixture was deoxygenated with nitrogen for 30 minutes, and 0.08 g of hydrogen peroxide and ferrous sulfate (4 wt % relative to the monomer, wherein the molar ratio of hydrogen peroxide and ferrous sulfate was 1:1) was added to react for 3 hours. The product is separated by centrifugation, washed with ethanol / water (50 / 50, w / w), and centrifuged repeatedly for 2-3 times. The cleaned product is dried in a vacuum oven. After 24 hours, a white powder will be produced, and then weighed to calculate the conversion rate. The yield is about 87%. The scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the r...

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method for preparing monodisperse polymer microspheres through oxidation-reduction initiated dispersion polymerization. The preparation method comprises: under anitrogen atmosphere, dissolving a polymerization monomer, a chain transfer agent and a stable dispersing agent into an ethanol / water mixed solution; respectively adding an oxidant and a reducing agentinto a system to initiate polymerization, and obtaining a stable suspension emulsion after the polymerization reaction is finished; and removing a small amount of unreacted monomers and the unreacteddispersion medium after centrifugation-washing multiple times to obtain the monodisperse polymer microspheres with uniform particle sizes. Compared with the common dispersion polymerization, the method of the invention is characterized in that the chain transfer agent is added into the oxidation-reduction initiated free radical polymerization system, so that the problem of non-uniform microspheres caused by too fast free radical polymerization nucleation and growth is avoided, and the unification of high yield and morphology of the microspheres is realized. The oxidation-reduction system disclosed by the invention can be used for rapidly preparing monodisperse polymer microspheres, wherein the process is simple, convenient to operate and suitable for industrial batch production, and has great application prospect.
