Triblock copolymer polydopamine-polyacrylic-polyoxyethylene (PDA-PAA-PEO) with excellent performance as a binder for silicon anodes was synthesized. Its structure was confirmed by 1H-NMR, FTIR and UV-vis spectroscopy. Results of electrochemical measurements indicated that a silicon anode based on PDA-PAA-PEO binder exhibited excellent cycle performance with a reversible capacity of 1597 mA h g−1 after 200 cycles at a current density of 0.5 C, much better than that of an electrode based on a polyvinylidene-fluoride binder. Improvement of the cycle performance and reversible capacity for silicon anodes could be attributed to the strong adhesive and high ion conductivity of PDA-PAA-PEO.

Silicon is a strong competitor for the anode of the next generation of lithium-ion batteries, and ball-milled silicon has broad prospects as a low-cost method for preparing nano silicon. In order to match ball-milled silicon, it is imperative to develop better bonding agents with lower costs. Through adding amino silane coupling agent, the performance of ball-milling silicon anode is enhanced. This study explored the network structure formed by amino silane coupling agent with different chain lengths and polyacrylic acids. Herein, the crosslinked network prepared with 3-[2-(2-aminoethyl amino) ethyl amino] propyl-trimethoxysilane as coupling agent had the best performance, and the initial discharge capacity of the silicon anode prepared by this binder reached 3297.4 mAh·g −1 at a constant current density of 0.5A·g −1 , the initial Coulomb efficiency reached 92.25%. After 100 cycles, the discharge capacity of anode was still maintained at 2229.5 mAh·g −1 with excellent charge/discharge performance.

Surface modification of nanomaterials with polymers is an effective route to render new functions and improve the performance of the final nanocomposites. Here, a facile method was developed to fabricate polyacrylic acid (PAA)-grafted monodisperse SiO 2 nanoparticles (SiO 2 -PDA-PAA) through a combination of mussel inspired chemistry and Michael addition reaction. To obtain the products, the SiO 2 nanoparticles were first coated with polydopamine (PDA) through self-polymerization of dopamine under rather mild conditions. The PDA thin films can then be further conjugated with amino-terminated PAA, which was synthesized by chain transfer free radical polymerization using cysteamine hydrochloride as a chain transfer agent and acrylic acid as a monomer. The SiO 2 -PDA-PAA nanocomposites were characterized via transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The effects of contact time, solution pH, temperature and methylene blue (MB) concentration on the removal of MB were investigated. The results demonstrated that SiO 2 -PDA-PAA showed significant improvement in adsorption efficiency towards MB. The kinetics and isotherm studies showed that pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isotherm models were well fitted the experimental data. The values of thermodynamics parameters such as entropy change ( ΔS 0 ), enthalpy change ( ΔH 0 ) and Gibbs free energy ( ΔG 0 ) were calculated based on the Van’t Hoff equation. The negative values of thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption of MB was a feasible, spontaneous and exothermic process. In summary, we developed a facile method to fabricate SiO 2 -based polymer nanocomposites, which showed obviously enhanced adsorption capability towards MB.

Polysiloxane/polyacrylate (PSi/PA) core/shell latexes are fabricated, and the particle morphology, the film structure, as well as the properties of the latex films are investigated by comparing with blend latexes, and the relationship between structure and property is proposed. Results indicate that the structure and property of the latex films heavily depend on the particle morphology. The sea–island latex films with uniform distribution of PSi phases can be formed from the PSi/PA core/shell latexes, and with the mass ratio from 1:1 to 1:4, their tensile strength and elongation at break are close to the pure PA latex film, while the elastic recovery and water vapor permeability improve notably. It is found that the phase segregation occurs in the blend latex films, and although the blend latex films provide better water vapor breathability, their mechanical properties sacrifice obviously. Therefore, the various properties must be balanced for practical applications and the core/shell latexes are competitive for meeting the balanced requirements. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

In this contribution, we reported the synthesis of poly( N -isopropylacrylamide)- block -poly(acrylic acid) (PNIPAAm- b -PAA) copolymer networks via sequential reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The PNIPAAm- b -PAA block copolymer networks were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The volume phase transition (VPT) temperatures of the PNIPAAm- b -PAA hydrogels were measured by means of micro-differential scanning calorimetry (micro-DSC). It was found that the block copolymer hydrogels displayed the VPT temperatures lower than the control PNIPAAm hydrogel. Compared to the control PNIPAAm hydrogel, the deswelling and reswelling properties of the block copolymer hydrogels were significantly improved. The improved thermoresponsive properties of the PNIPAAm- b -PAA hydrogels have been interpreted on the basis of the formation of the architecture of the block copolymer networks.

Alginate/CaCO3 hybrid beads with pH- and thermal-responsive drug release properties were prepared under compressed CO2 using aliphatic poly(urethane-amine)s (PU) as the thermal-responsive component. Polyacrylic acid (PAA) was used as a crystal growth additive to control the structure of the hybrid beads. The hybrid beads were characterized by using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis. The interaction between PAA and aliphatic PU contributed to the formation of alginate beads with a compact CaCO3 shell. Indomethacin release behaviour was found to be pH- and thermal-responsive. The release profiles were sustained with CaCO3 microparticles, indicating that the compact CaCO3 shell could hinder the permeability of the encapsulated drug and reduce the drug release effectively. The results suggest that the hybrid alginate beads can be used as “smart” polysaccharide materials for sustained dual-responsive drug delivery.

Development of tough hydrogels has greatly expanded their applications as load-bearing materials. However, the elastic modulus of tough hydrogels is usually lower than 1 MPa. It remains a challenge to design tough hydrogels with high modulus. We report here a series of tough double-network (DN) hydrogels with ultrahigh elastic modulus (up to 200 MPa) by forming robust hydrogen bonds between the first poly(acrylic acid) network and the second poly( N -isopropyl acrylamide) network. The dense cooperative hydrogen bonds greatly reduce the segmental mobility and thus improve the rigidity of gel matrix. Owing to the dynamic nature of hydrogen bonds, the modulus of hydrogels is strongly influenced by temperature and pH, affording the gels shape memory property. The strategy by forming robust noncovalent bonds between interpenetrating networks should be applicable to other systems for designing tough and versatile hydrogels with diverse promising applications. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel high oil-absorbing crosslinked gel was synthesized by copolymerization of butyl methacrylate (BMA) with a small amount of pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA) crosslinker using single electron transfer-living radical polymerization (SET–LRP) initiated with carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4 ) and catalyzed by Cu(0)/hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) in N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The polymerization followed first-order kinetics as indicated by linear increase of monomer concentration with reaction time. Effects of reaction temperature, crosslinker, initiator, and catalyst on the oil-absorbing properties of the crosslinked gel were investigated in detail. The oil absorptions of the crosslinked gel to chloroform, toluene could reach 51.9, 34.5 g/g, respectively. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2012
