Hybrid microspheres with a polystyrene core coated with magnetite nanoparticles were prepared by two techniques. Firstly, monodispersed functional polystyrene latex particles were prepared by emulsion polymerization. In a general way chemical groups may be introduced through polymerizable surfactant or functional monomer. Magnetite acidic or alkaline sol was added in, then magnetite nanoparticles were absorbed onto latex particles by electrostatic attraction and core-shell composite particles were formed. Secondly, core-shell composite particles were prepared by miniemulsion polymerization. To modify the tendency of conglomeration of magnetite and increase the amount of magnetic particles onto the composite particles, silane coupling agent MPS was used as surface modification agent for magnetite. A series of different size and coating morphology magnetic hybrid particles were prepared through the adjustment of some experiment parameters. The obtained functional core-shell particles were characterized by FTIR, TEM, etc.

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful scanning probe technique, which is capable of imaging polymer surfaces. This technique is complementary to the scanning electron microscope (SEM) but because of the AFM's sensitivity in the z direction surfaces that are too smooth to image by SEM can easily be imaged by AFM. This study utilizes transmission electron microscopy(TEM) to image the morphology of the latex rubber particles; SEM and AFM are used to study the degree of dispensability of the latex particles in the epoxy, and the fatigue-fracture surface of the rubber modified epoxy.Core-shell latex particles were prepared with a core of poly(butadiene-styreiie) |P(B-S)| and a shell Poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA). In order to study the interaction between the core/shell particles and the epoxy matrix, the shell is systematically varied in terms of chemical bonding, physical interaction and the extent of these interactions by incorporating acrylonitrile(AN). glycidyl-methacrylate(GMA). and crosslinking agent divinylbenzene(DVB) of varying concentrations in the shell.

Latexes with poly(butyl methacrylate-stryrene-acrylonitrile) rich in the shell and PDMS rich in the core were prepared based on microemulsion polymerization. Vinyl monomers were introduced to generate slightly crosslinked particles, then, etamethyltetraeyelosiloxane(D4)was added slowly to form the core. In the process, internal resistance must be overcome when the D4 entered into the polymer to form the core. The compatibility between the two polymer phases was changed by introducing acrylonitrile and the effect of different methods on forming latex particles was discussed.

AbstractIn this study, core–shell particles were prepared as a hybrid material, in which a thin polymer shell was formed on the surface of the SiO2 sphere particles. The core–shell structure was successfully achieved without adding a surfactant via simple free-radical polymerization (soap-free emulsion polymerization) for various monomers of styrene, methyl methacrylate (MMA), and their derivatives. MMA formed thin homogeneous shells of polymer (PMMA) less than 100 nm in thickness with complete surface coverage and a very smooth shell surface. The obtained shell morphology strongly depended on the monomers, which suggests different shell formation mechanisms with respect to the monomers. It was found that the cross-linking monomer 1,4-divinylbenzene tends to promote shell formation, and the cross-linking reaction may stabilize the core–shell structure throughout radical polymerization. It should also be noted that the present method produced a considerable amount of pure polymer besides the core–shell particles. The glass transition temperatures of the obtained polymer shells were higher than those of the corresponding bulk materials. This result suggests strong interactions at the core–shell interface.
