Determination of the extent of incorporation of a reactive surfactant in polystyrene latex particles via GPC

Abstract: The reactive surfactant HITENOL BC20 (polyoxyethylene alkylphenyl ether ammonium sulfate containing 20 units of ethylene oxide) was used in emulsion polymerizations of styrene with potassium persulfate as initiator. A new method to determine the amount of chemically bound surfactant was developed using GPC combined with UV detection as shown in the figure. Comparing this GPC method with the serum replacement/FTIR method reveals it to be a relatively simple and more effective means of characterization.

“…The fraction of Jeffamine D‐4000 that is chemically bound to the carbonated poly( Myr ‐co‐GMA) can be calculated using Equations S1–S3 (≈55% of Jeffamine D‐4000 was not chemically bound to the carbonated Myr /GMA‐70) (Figure S9 and Table S2, Supporting Information). [ 54 ] It was not possible to remove excess Jeffamine D‐4000 from the mixture. Both synthesized NIPU and Jeffamine D‐4000 are liquids and no solvent could be found to act as a non‐solvent for either the synthesized NIPU or Jeffamine D‐4000.…”

“…They strongly influence the nucleation of the latex particles, emulsification of monomer droplets, stabilization of polymer particles during polymerization, and the shelf-life stability of the products [6,7]. Some negative effects of the presence of conventional surfactants in latex are foaming and migration to interfaces during film formation, giving as a result, water-sensitivity.…”

“…One of their most useful applications is the production of polymeric latexes by dispersion, emulsion, mini-emulsion and micro-emulsion polymerization systems [2]. They impact strongly the nucleation of latex particles, emulsification of monomer droplets, stabilization of polymer particles throughout polymerization and the shelf-life (stability) of the products [3][4][5]. Some negative effects of the presence of conventional surfactants in the latex are foaming and migration to interfaces during film formation, resulting in water sensitivity [6].…”
