In Situ Formation of Silica Nanoparticles Decorated with Well-Defined Homopolymers and Block Copolymers

Abstract: Grafting non-polar polymer chains on the surface of polar nanoparticles (e.g., silica) is an effective way to enhance particle/matrix interactions and thus promote their homogeneous dispersion within a non-polar matrix, which leads to improved mechanical properties. Current grafting methods have not yet produced nanoparticles with well-defined polymers on the surface and high grafting density. Here, we employed anionic polymerization high vacuum techniques to synthesize ω-triethoxysilyl polystyrene (PS-TEOS) a… Show more

“…In all cases, a small shoulder corresponding to (polymer chain) 2 -Si­(OEt) 2 appears at a higher retention volume (left of the SEC traces). Similar findings on end-capping with TEOS were found in our previous study (with linear polymers), where two living polymeric chains were terminated with one molecule of TEOS, as proved by SEC and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) spectroscopy Figure shows the 1 H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl 3 , δ in ppm) spectrum of (PS 6k ) 2 PI 12k -TEOS as a representative example.…”

“…TEOS attached to the PI block experiences a less severe barrier than TEOS linked to the PS block. This phenomenon has the same explanation as in the cases of linear homo- and copolymer as reported in a previous report . TEOS connected to the PI block ((PS 6k ) 2 -PI 12k -TEOS and (PS 6k ) 2 -PI 50k -TEOS) is subject to less steric hindrance than TEOS linked to the PS block ((PS 6k ) 2 -PS 10k -TEOS and (PS 6k ) 2 - b -PI 50k -TEOS).…”
