The invention discloses novel
functionalized polystyrene resin. The novel
functionalized polystyrene resin is prepared by performing a
condensation reaction on
aldehyde-based
polystyrene resin and a primary amino-containing functionalization
reagent, wherein a -CH=N- linking arm structure is formed between the
aldehyde-based
polystyrene resin and the primary amino-containing functionalization
reagent, and a coplanar
rigid structure is formed by the -CH=N- linking arm structure and a
benzene ring in the
polystyrene resin through conjugation. A preparation method of the novel
functionalized polystyrene resin comprises the following steps: step 1, adding the dried
aldehyde-based polystyrene resin (PSD) into an
organic solvent, and performing swelling at
room temperature; step 2, adding the primary amino-containing functionalization
reagent H2N-Fg, performing uniform mixing, and performing a reaction for a period of time; and step 3, cooling the mixture obtained after the reaction in the step 2 is performed, performing
filtration, washing the obtained
solid, and performing
drying. The functionalized polystyrene resin provided by the invention can also be prepared from the PSD and the H2N-Fg under
solvent-free conditions. According to the novel functionalized polystyrene resin and the preparation method thereof provided by the invention, the preparation process is simple, and the functional group content per unit weight of the resin material is high.
