Synthesis and Characterization of Fluorine-containing Polyacrylate Emulsion with Core-Shell Structure

A fluorine-containing polyacrylate copolymer emulsion was synthesized by a seed emulsion polymerization method, in which methyl methacrylate （MMA） and butyl acrylate （BA） were used as main monomers and hexafluorobutyl methacrylate （HFMA） as fluorine-containing monomer. The structure and properties were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrum （FT-IR）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, particle size analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）, contact angle （CA）, differential scanning calorimetry （DSC） and thermogravimetry （TG） analysis. The FTIR and TEM results showed that HFMA was effectively involved in the emulsion copolymerization, and the formed emulsion particles had a core-shell structure and a narrow particle size distribution. XPS and CA analysis revealed that a gradient concentration of fluorine existed in the depth profile of fluorine-containing emulsion film which was richer in fluorine and more hydrophobic in one side. DSC and TG analysis also showed that a clear core-shell structure existed in the fluorine-containing emulsion particles, and their film showed higher thermal stability than that of fluorine-free emulsion.

包含氟的符号的 polyacrylate 共聚物乳剂被一个种子乳剂聚合方法，在甲基， methacrylate (MMA ) 和丁基 acrylate (BA ) 作为包含氟的符号的单体被用作主要单体和 hexafluorobutyl methacrylate (HFMA ) 综合。结构和性质被 Fourier 变换描绘红外线的光谱(英尺红外) ，传播电子显微镜学(TEM ) ，粒子尺寸分析， X 光检查光电子光谱学(XPS ) ，接触角度(CA ) ，微分扫描热量测定(DSC ) 和 thermogravimetry (TG ) 分析。FTIR 和 TEM 结果证明 HFMA 有效地涉及乳剂 copolymerization，并且形成的乳剂粒子让核心壳结构和一个狭窄的粒子缩放分发。XPS 和 CA 分析表明氟的符号的坡度集中在富于氟的符号和在一个方面恐水病的更多的包含氟的符号的乳剂电影的深度侧面存在。DSC 和 TG 分析也证明清楚的核心壳结构在包含氟的符号的乳剂粒子存在，并且他们的电影比没有氟的符号的乳剂的显示出更高热的稳定性。
