  • A combination of magnetic and temperature-responsive properties in the same polymer composites is expected to increase their potential applications in the biomedical field. Accordingly, micron-sized magnetite/polystyrene/poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate-ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate), which are abbreviated as $Fe_3O_4$/PS/P (DM-EGDM) composite polymer particles, were prepared by the seeded copolymerization of DM and EGDM in the presence of magnetite/polystyrene ($Fe_3O_4$/PS) particles. $Fe_3O_4$/PS/P(DM-EGDM) composite particles with magnetic properties showed a temperature-sensitive phase transition at approximately $31^{\circ}C$. The adsorption behavior of the low molecular weight emulsifiers and trypsin (TR) as biomolecules were examined on $Fe_3O_4$/PS/P(DM-EGDM) composite polymer particles at different temperatures. The native conformation of TR was followed by measuring the specific activity under various adsorption conditions. The activity of the adsorbed TR on composite polymer particles was higher than those of the tree TR and TR adsorbed on $Fe_3O_4$/PS particles.

  • 물을 반응매체로 하고 카본블랙을 함유하는 폴리스티렌 복합체를 현탁중합법을 이용하여 입자형태로의 합성을 시도하였다. 안정제로는 소수성 실리카를, 개시제로는 지용성 안정제인 azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN)을 선택하였다. 반응은 $75^{\circ}C$로 고정하였다. 안정제의 농도를 물에 대하여 $0.17{\sim}3.33wt%$까지 변화시킨 결과 1.67 wt%에서 최소 평균입경인 $7.96{\mu}m$의 입자가 형성되었다. 가교제인 divinylbenzene(DVB)은 단량체에 대하여 $0.1{\sim}1.0wt%$까지 변화시킨 결과 가교제의 농도가 증가함에 따라 입자간의 응집이 발생하며 평균입경이 크게 증가하였다. 카본블랙의 농도가 단량체에 대하여 1.0 wt%에서는 단량체만으로 구하여진 입자의 입경에 비하여 평균입경이 큰 폭으로 증가하였다. 이는 혼합물이 분산에 필요한 최소점도에 미치지 못하며 균일한 분산이 이루어지지 못한 결과 발생한 것으로 사료된다. 단량체 대비 3.0 wt% 카본블랙 혼합물의 경우에는 혼합물의 점도 증가로 인한 분산의 향상으로 평균입경이 감소하였다. 이 두 농도의 경우 중합반응 이전의 혼합물의 예비입자 및 중합반응 후의 고분자복합체 입자의 입경은 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. 카본블랙의 농도가 단량체 대비 5.0 및 7.5 wt%에서는 혼합물의 점도가 큰 폭으로 상승하고 그 결과 균일한 분산이 이루어지며 예비입자의 평균입경은 감소하였으나, 중합반응 과정에서 입자응집 현상이 발생하며 고분자 복합체의 평균입경은 다시 증가하였다.

  • Fullerene/polystyrene ($C_{60}$/PS) nano particle was prepared by using emulsion polymerization. Styrene and fullerene were emulsified in aqueous media in the presence of poly(N-vinyl pyridine) as an emulsion stabilizer, and polymerization was initiated by water soluble radical initiator, potassium persulfate. The obtained nano particles have an average diameter in the range of 400-500 nm. The fullerene contents in the nano particle can be controlled up to 15 wt % by varying the feed ratio, which was confirmed by themogravimetric analysis (TGA) and elemental analysis (EA). The structure and morphologies of the $C_{60}$/PS nano particles were examined by various analytical techniques such as dynamic light scattering (DLS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), electron diffraction (ED) pattern, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), and UV spectroscopy. Unlike conventional $C_{60}$/PS particles initiated by organic free radical initiators, in which the fullerene is copolymerized forming a covalent bond with styrene monomer, the prepared $C_{60}$/PS nano particles contain pristine fullerene as secondary particles homogeneously distributed in the polystyrene matrix.

  • Highly monodisperse polystyrene (PS) nanospheres were fabricated by surfactant-free emulsion polymerization in water using styrene, 2,2'-azobis(2-methyl propionamidine) dihydrochloride (AIBA), and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP). The size and distribution of the PS nanospheres were systematically investigated in terms of initiator concentration, stabilizer concentration, reaction temperature, reaction time, and reactant concentration. With increasing AIBA initiator concentration, PS particle sizes are raised proportionally, and can be controlled from 120 to 380 nm. Particle sizes were reduced with increasing PVP concentration. This decrease occurs because a high PVP concentration leads to a large number of primary nuclei in the early stage of polymerization. When the reaction temperature increased, the sizes of the PS particles decrease slightly. The particles grew quickly during the initial reaction stage (1-3 h) and the growth rate became steady-state after 6 h. The PS sizes approximately doubled when the reactant (styrene, PVP, azo-initiator) concentrations were increased by a factor of eight.

  • Ag nanoparticles were distributed onto polystyrene nanoparticle (PS-Ag) beads using two synthetic methodologies. In the first methodology, polystyrene (PS) beads were prepared via emulsion polymerization, with Ag nanoparticles subsequently loaded onto the surface of the PS beads. The polymerization of styrene was radiolytically induced in an ethanol (EtOH)/water medium, generating PS beads. Subsequently, Ag nanoparticles were loaded onto the PS beads via the reduction of Ag ions. The results from the morphological studies, using field emission transmission electron microscopy (FE-TEM), reveal the PS particles were spherical and nanosized, and the average size of the PS spherical particles decreased with increasing volume % of water in the polymerization medium. The size of the PS spherical particles increases with increasing radiation dose for the polymerization. Also, the amount of Ag nanoparticle loading could be increased by increasing the irradiation dose for the reduction of the Ag ions. In the second methodology, the polymerization of styrene and reduction of Ag ions were simultaneously performed by irradiating a solution containing styrene and Ag ions in an EtOH/water medium. Interestingly, the Ag nanoparticles were preferentially homogeneously distributed within the PS particles (not on the surface of the PS particles). Thus, Ag nanoparticles were distributed onto the surface of the PS particles using the first approach, but into the PS clusters of the particles via the second. The antimicrobial efficiency of a cloth coated with the Ag-PS composite nanoparticles was tested against bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniase, for 100 water washing cycles.

  • Polystyrene/gold nanoparticle (PS/AuNP) composite fibers were fabricated using an electrospinning technique. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that the diameters of the naphthalenethiol-capped gold nanoparticles (prior to incorporation into the PS fibers) ranged from 2 to 5 nm. UV-vis spectroscopy revealed the surface plasmon peaks of the gold nanoparticles centered at approximately 512 nm, indicating that nano-sized Au particles are well-dispersed in solution. This was consistent with the TEM observations. The electrospun nanofibers of PS/AuNP composites were approximately 60-3,000 nm in diameter. The surface morphology of the PS/AuNP composite and the dispersability of the Au nanoparticles inside of PS after electrospinning process were investigated by SEM and TEM. The thermal behavior of the pure PS and PS/AuNP nanocomposites and fibers were examined by DSC.

  • 무전해 니켈 도금법을 사용하여 단분산 폴리스티렌 입자 표면에 니켈이 도금된 고분자 코어/금속 쉘의 복합 입자를 제조하였다. 단분산 입자는 분산중합으로 제조하였는데 사용한 분산매질의 종류에 따라 다양한 크기의 단분산 폴리스티렌 입자를 제조할 수 있었다. 그 중 직경 $3.4\;{\mu}m$ 크기의 단분산 폴리스티렌 입자를 선택하여 무전해 니켈 도금을 시도하였다. 니켈 도금에 영향을 미치는 도금 조건을 파악하기 위하여 활성화제인 $PdCl_2$의 농도, 착화제인 glycine의 농도와 니켈 도금액의 투여 시간에 따른 니켈 도금된 폴리스티렌 복합 입자의 모폴로지를 관찰하였다. 본 연구조건하에서는 $PdCl_2$의 농도 0.4 g/L, glycine 농도 1 M 이상인 경우 폴리스티렌 입자 위에 균일한 두께의 니켈층을 형성하였고 석출되는 니켈도 적었다. 도금 시간 2 시간 중에서 동일양의 도금액을 투여 속도를 달리하며 도금한 경우 모폴로지 상의 뚜렷한 차이는 없었으나 0.15 mL/min 속도로 1시간 동안 투여한 경우가 상대적으로 균일한 도금 특성을 보여 주었다.

  • The inorganic-organic composite particles with core-shell structure were polymerized by using styrene and potassium persulfate (KPS) as a shell monomer and an initiator, respectively. We studied the effect of surfactants on the core-shell structure of silicone dioxide/styrene composite particles polymerized in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS), polyoxyethylene alkylether sulfate (EU-S133D), and at none surfactant condition. We found that $SiO_2$ core / polystyrene(PS) shell structure was formed when polymerization of styrene was conducted on the surface of $SiO_2$ particles, and the concentration SDS and EU-Sl33D was $8.34{\times}10^{-2}mole/L$. The core-shell structure was confirmed by measuring the thermal decomposition of the polymer composite using thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), and the morphology of the composite particles was characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM).

  • 음이온계 유화제를 사용하여 monomer pre-emulsion을 제조한 다음 ammonium persulfate를 개시제로 하여 단계 중합법에 의해 새로운 입자의 생성이 적고 중합 과정에서 안정성이 우수한 poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA)/polystyrene (PSt) 라텍스를 제조하였다. 본 연구에서는 shell 중합시에 새로운 입자의 생성이 적고 중합 중 안정성이 우수한 라텍스를 제조하기 위해 개시제농도, 유화제농도, 중합온도가 PMMA/PSt와 PSt/PMMA의 core-shell 구조에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 중합한 라텍스를 입도분석기 (particle size analyzer: PSA) 및 투과전자현미경(transmission electron microscope; TEM)을 이용하여 실제 입자측정과 입자형태 특성을 확인하였으며 시차주사열량계 (differential scanning calorimeter, DSC)를 이용하여 유리전이온도($T_g$)의 측정, 필름 조막성 (minimum film formation temperature: MFFT), NaOH 첨가에 의한 가수 분해에 따르는 pH를 측정하여 core-shell의 또 다른 특성을 확인하였다.
