Synthesis of polyalkylacrylate nanolatexes by microemulsion polymerization method
The paper concerns with the radical polymerization of [octadecyl acrylate (ODA), isooctyl acrylate (iso-OA) and α-olefins 1-Octene (n-O)]. These microemulsions were stabilized by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and initiated by water-soluble initiator potassium persulfate (KPS). The nanolatex particle...

| Summary: | The paper concerns with the radical polymerization of [octadecyl acrylate (ODA), isooctyl acrylate (iso-OA) and α-olefins 1-Octene (n-O)]. These microemulsions were stabilized by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and initiated by water-soluble initiator potassium persulfate (KPS). The nanolatex particle sizes were determined by transmission electron microscope (TEM). They were situated between 10 and 100 nm. The microstructures were confirmed by FT-IR and molecular weights determined by Gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The obtained M. wt. were (≈70 × 103, 101 × 103 and 153 × 103 g/mol). The polydispersity, molecular weights, and particle sizes were discussed in the light of micelle formation and shape of the alkyl group via emulsion polymerization. |
