Synthesis and characterization of butyl acrylate-co-poly (ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate obtained by microemulsion polymerization
The synthesis and characterization of copolymers of n-Butyl Acrylate (BA) and Poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate (PEGDMA) were realized by microemulsion. In this synthesis, the relation of PEGDMA 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50% wt with respect to BA was changed. The copolymers obtained were characterized b...

| description | The synthesis and characterization of copolymers of n-Butyl Acrylate (BA) and Poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate (PEGDMA) were realized by microemulsion. In this synthesis, the relation of PEGDMA 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50% wt with respect to BA was changed. The copolymers obtained were characterized by the determination of conversions (gravimetry), infrared spectroscopy: Fourier transform (FTIR), dynamic light scattering (DLS), thermogravimetry (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results confirmed the synthesis of BA-co – PEGDMA copolymers by the identification of characteristic FTIR bands and which determined the glass transition temperature of the copolymers. The conversions were found in the range of 85% to 90%. Within the stability of the produced latex, it was observed that at 10% and 30% wt. of PEGDMA the systems were stable, but when more PEGDMA was added up 40% to 50% wt., the system became unstable. The stability of produced latexes depends on the PEGDMA contents and this must be less than 30% wt.; meanwhile the PEGDMA content greater than 30% wt. leads to unstable latexes, forming clots. Copolymers showed single glass transition temperatures between −53.37°C and −16.58°C, depending on the composition of PEGDMA in the copolymers. Resulting in the different arrangements of units of PEGDMA along in the chain affected the thermal properties of the final copolymers. |
