SiO2@poly(methyl methacrylate)–reduced graphene oxide (SiO2@PMMA–rGO) composites with outstanding thermal stability, robust mechanical performance and excellent conductivity have been prepared by dispersion polymerization and electrostatic assembly based colloidal blending. The simultaneous construction of well-segregated silica structures and interconnected graphene networks, not only efficiently avoids agglomeration of the incorporated nanofillers, but also ensures enhanced interfacial adhesion between the fillers and the PMMA matrix, endowing the resultant composite with high performance. Specifically, compared to the host polymer, the composite with collaborative structure exhibits high thermal stability, i.e. the decomposition temperature increases by 80 °C and shows robust mechanical properties with a 108% increase in modulus and a 125% improvement in hardness. Besides, an ultra-low percolation threshold of 0.23 vol% is also achieved and the electrical conductivity reached 15.1 S m−1 with only 2.7 vol% graphene loading, which is ∼8 orders of magnitude higher than that for SiO2–PMMA–rGO (where SiO2, PMMA and rGO were simply compounded without forming synergetic structures) with the same rGO loading. These results demonstrate that the SiO2@PMMA–rGO composite has great potential to be applied as mechanical, thermal, and electrical materials.

The graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) onto alginate was carried out in aqueous media by initiators of ammonium persulphate under a nitrogen gas atmosphere. Then, the grafting of PMMA chains onto the alginate backbone was confirmed through the study of Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy . At last, a thin and transparent polymethyl methacrylate grafted alginate film with high strength was obtained by the casting method. The effect of MMA/SA ratio or percentage of graft (G%) on mechanical properties, thermal stability (thermogravimetric analysis/differential thermogravimetry analyses), color, opacity and water resistance of composite films were characterized. Results showed the homogeneous transparent films could be obtained while G% was lower than 8.64%. After being grafted by PMMA, the tensile strength of the films was distinctly improved by 205.3%, as well the elongation at break (E%) by 41.7% while the MMA/SA (g/g) is 0.3. On the other hand, water resistance, thermal stability and crystallinity of the films were improved, however, the transparency was slightly decreased.

Due to intermediate hydrophobicity of methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer in water, it is difficult to prepare its stable water in oil high internal phase emulsion (HIPE). Moreover, the addition of fully hydrophilic co-monomer such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) in MMA monomer makes it further troublesome to stabilize these emulsions. This paper addresses the preparation of such type of difficult to prepare emulsions via addition of an amphiphilic fluorinated di-block copolymer (FDB), poly(2-dimethylamino)ethylmethacrylate- b -poly(trifluoroethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA- b -PTFEMA) as stabilizer. Interestingly, HEMA and/or HFBA (hexa fluorobutyl acrylate) as co-monomers were successfully added to impart some special properties such as thermodynamic stability, desired amphiphilicity to the final polyHIPEs. Fluorinated blocks in FDB anchored well at oil/water interface of HIPE, offering enough hydrophobicity to the comparatively hydrophilic monomers and in turn providing resistance against coalescence. MMA polyHIPEs were found to be fully hydrophobic just by replacing HEMA co-monomer with HFBA. Due to superb inherent hydrophobic nature of fluorine atoms , MMA-HFBA polyHIPEs showed remarkable water contact angle of 139°. Furthermore, the addition of fluorinated co-monomer in MMA based HIPEs significantly improved thermal stabilities of these materials with improvement in degradation temperature from 305 °C to 360 °C.

The beeswax used in Chinese traditional hot waxed wood technology has several drawbacks, such as high price, scarce resources, and poor heat resistance. To expand the application of hot waxing technology in the field of wood decoration and protection, polyethylene wax was modified by a grafted maleic anhydride-methyl methacrylate co-monomer. A type of modified polyethylene wax with low cost, high melting point, high stability, and strong polarity suitable for hot waxed wood was prepared as a replacement for beeswax. The effects of the grafting conditions on the chemical properties, thermal properties, chemical structure, and crystallization properties of modified polyethylene wax were studied and compared to those of beeswax. The results show that maleic anhydride-methyl methacrylate co-monomer grafting can effectively improve the acid value of polyethylene wax. For the ratio of two monomers of 1/1, the total amount of monomer of 8 wt%, the amount of initiator of 2 wt%, the reaction temperature of 150 °C, and the acid value of modified polyethylene wax was consistent with that of beeswax, realizing the simulation of the main chemical properties of beeswax. The thermal stability and melting temperature of the modified polyethylene wax are significantly higher than those of beeswax, its crystal structure is similar to that of beeswax, and the cyclic anhydride groups and ester groups introduced by co-monomer grafting endow it with polar groups that play an important role in the wood hot waxing process.Keywords:beeswax;polyethylene wax;grafting;maleic anhydride;methyl methacrylate;thermal and chemical properties

A novel and facile continuous flow photopolymerization of Pickering emulsion procedure to fabricate nanoporous composite microspheres was induced. Palygorskite (PAL) fibers were chosen as stabilizers in oil phase system that containing of Methyl methacrylate (MMA), (ethylene glycol) diacrylate (EGDMA), Irgacure 819 (I 819, photoinitiator) and toluene (porogenic agent). The influence of PAL concentration to the emulsion stabilities and the morphologies of produced microspheres have been fully investigated. It was observed that in the presence of 1.5 wt% PAL fibers, the formed pickering emulsion provided best conditions to obtain polymerized porous microspheres. Furthermore, N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherms characterization revealed a specific BET surface area of 171 m 2 /g of the resultant microspheres, which suggested the great potential applications of such methodology. Suitable polymerization flow rate is one of the other key parameters to result PMMA/PAL composite microspheres. Additionally, the formation mechanism of the microsphere as well as its porosity has been discussed.

Microcapsules containing n-octadecane with different methylmethacrylate (MMA (methyl methacrylate))-based copolymer shells were fabricated by a suspension-like polymerization. Butyl acrylate (BA), butyl methacrylate (BMA), lauryl methacrylate (LMA) and stearyl methacrylate (SMA) were employed as monomers to copolymerize with MMA . Pentaerythritol tetraacrylate (PETRA) was employed as a crosslinking agent. The (microencapsulted phase change materials) MicroPCMs were characterized using Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Thermal properties and thermal resistances of MicroPCMs were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), respectively. Phase change enthalpies and PCM contents of MicroPCMs increased with the length decreasing of the side chain of the monomers . The n-octadecane content of as much as 77.3% can be obtained in the crosslinked MicroPCMs with P(MMA-co-BMA) as shell, and accompanied by the highest melting enthalpy (173.7 J/g) and crystallization enthalpy (174.4 J/g). Heat capacities of crosslinked MicroPCMs are higher than those of their uncrosslinked counterparts. The crosslinked MicroPCMs exhibit significantly greater thermal stabilities compared with their uncrosslinked counterparts and the n-ontadecane bulk. The crosslinked MicroPCMs with P(MMA-co-SMA) displays the highest thermal resistance temperature up to 255 °C. Therefore, MicroPCMs with MMA-based copolymer as shells, especially crosslinked copolymer shells, show excellent potentials for thermal energy storage .

Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) based ionomers with different lanthanum (La(III)) contents (PMMA-XLa) synthesized by free radical solution polymerization were applied to poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) resins as a kind of multifunctional aids, and their performances were evaluated by measuring the static stability time, initial discoloration, transparency, fusion behavior and tensile strength of the modified PVC. The ionomers with proper lanthanum (La(III)) contents show a better thermal stability efficiency in comparison with traditional stabilizer lanthanum stearate. Meantime, they can accelerate PVC plasticization more efficiently than PMMA. The rigid PVC products stabilized with the ionomers present good transparency and enhanced tensile strength.

Methyl methacrylate (MMA) is an important monomer in fine chemicals. The synthesis of MMA by one-step oxidative esterification from methacrolein with methanol over a heterogeneous catalyst with high activity, selectivity and stability is highly desirable. Herein, Zn-Al-hydrotalcites (HTs)-supported atomically precise Au25nanoclusters with different molar ratios of Zn2+/Al3+were prepared and used as the precursors for this reaction. They exhibited good performances in comparison with the gold catalysts prepared by the deposition precipitation method. The structural and electronic properties were evaluated by various characterization technologies, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier-transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) of CO adsorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and CO2temperature-programmed desorption (TPD). The combined characterization results suggested that the adsorption property of gold and the basicity of the catalyst contributes to their high activities. Substrates extended experiments and stability tests implied the potential application of Zn-Al-mixed oxides supported gold catalysts, which paves a new way for supported gold catalyst in the one-step oxidation esterification reaction.Keywords:gold cluster;hydrotalcite;methacrolein;methyl methacrylate;oxidative esterification

The polar solvents, N -methylpyrrolidone (NMP), N , N -dimethylformamide (DMF), and acetonitrile (CH 3 CN) were used as ligands for iron(III)-mediated activators generated by electron transfer atom transfer radical polymerizations (AGET ATRPs) of methyl methacrylate (MMA) with various initiators and reducing agents. Polymerizations were conducted with a molar ratio of [MMA] 0 /[initiator] 0 /[FeBr 3 ] 0 /[reducing agent] 0 = 100:1:1:0.5 and a volume ratio of MMA/solvent = 2:1 at 60 °C to investigate the effects of initiator, solvent and reducing agent, and most of the systems showed the typical features of “living”/controlled radical polymerization. In order to get a deeper understanding of the mechanism, the amount of the reducing agent was changed to study the polymerization behavior. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

An efficient synthesis route was developed for the preparation of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) nanohybrids using azide-terminated poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) via a combination of reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) and the click reaction. A novel azido-functionalized chain transfer agent (DMP-N3) was prepared and subsequently employed to mediate the RAFT polymerizations of methyl methacrylate (MMA). The RAFT polymerizations exhibited first-order kinetics and a linear molecular weight dependence with the conversion. The kinetic results show that the grafting percentage of PMMA on the MWCNTs surface grows along with the increase of the reaction time. Even at 50 °C, the grafting rate of azide-terminated PMMA is comparatively fast in the course of the click reaction, with the alkyne groups adhered to MWCNTs in less than 24 h. The successful functionalization of PMMA onto MWCNT was proved by FTIR, while TGA was employed to calculate the grafting degree of PMMA chains (the highest GP = 21.9%). Compared with the pristine MWCNTs, a thicker diameter of the MWCNTs-g-PMMA was observed by TEM, which confirmed the grafted PMMA chain to the surface of nanotubes. Therefore, the MWCNTs-g-PMMA could be dispersed and stably suspended in water.Keywords:multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT);azide-alkyne click chemistry;RAFT polymerization;PMMA

In this paper, hydroxyl terminated polysiloxane was first prepared by ring-opening polymerization of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D 4 ), which was then modified with acryloyl chloride to obtain acryloyloxy polysiloxane. A light-scattering material was synthesized by copolymerization of acryloyloxy polysiloxane and methyl methacrylate (MMA). The results showed that the transmittance of the material was 88% and the haze was 93% when the ratio of MMA to light-scattering agent was 100:1, the amount of initiator was 0.3%, and the post-polymerization temperature was 50 °C. The TGA data indicated that the material had excellent heat resistance. Therefore, it has a wide range of applications in the field of light-emitting diodes.
