Monodisperse cross-linked polystyrene nanospheres by emulsifier-free miniemulsion polymerization

Abstract: Cross-linked cationic polystyrene (CCPS) nanospheres with monodispersity were successfully generated by soap-free miniemulsion polymerization of styrene and divinylbenzene with 2,2′-azobis (2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride as a water-soluble initiator. The effects of output power of the homogenizer and the concentration of the initiator and cross-linking agent on the particle size and coefficient of variation of CCPS nanospheres were systematically investigated and discussed. The weight percent of N element on the particle surface and the ζ potential were determined as different initiator concentrations were employed for the preparation of CCPS nanospheres. Furthermore, the technique of nitrogen adsorption/desorption was applied to characterize the specific surface area and the total pore volume of the CCPS nanospheres, which were generated from different amounts of divinylbenzene. Overall, the present study provides a simple route for producing cross-linked polymer nanospheres with monodispersity.
