Encapsulation of calcium carbonate by styrene polymerization

Abstract: In order to obtain composites of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) encapsulated by polystyrene (PS), soapless polymerization of styrene (S) in aqueous phase in the presence of CaCO3 was carried out. Influences on the encapsulation and on monomer conversion were studied. Results showed that monomer conversion higher than 52% can be achieved by increasing the stirring speed of polymerization to 1000 rpm. In order to remove the polymer adsorbed on the surface of the inorganic powder, the crude PS/CaCO3 composite obtained… Show more

“…It was reported that the encapsulation ratio and encapsulating efficiency of poly(methyl methacrylate) on CaCO 3 were much higher than that on CaCO 3 modified with stearic acid; furthermore, the hydrophobic surface of CaCO 3 nanoparticles was crucial to improve the compatibility between the CaCO 3 and methyl methacrylate monomer in emulsion system. 10 Yang et al 20 prepared PS encapsulated CaCO 3 composite by soapless emulsion polymerisation, a maximal real encapsulation ratio of 6?4% was obtained, regardless of the variations in experimental conditions.…”

“…A wide range of nanocarriers, hybrid carriers, and microcarriers were synthesized. In this regard, various techniques like emulsion polymerization, freeze-drying, intercalative polymerization, sol-gel method, hybrid latex polymerization, etc., have been deployed for the production of carriers [1][2][3][4]. However, some of these methods are multi-step physical/chemical processes wherein various chemicals are used leading to an increase in cost and generation of waste.…”

“…Recently, enormous attention has been paid to organic/inorganic and inorganic/organic hybrid nanocomposites in conformity with the fast development of nanotechnology [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Inorganic/organic composites are of interest in various applications such as cosmetics, ink, and paints, because of their superior mechanical properties and dispersion stability in suspension medium [15][16][17][18].…”
