The polymerization was carried out in the ethanol/water medium using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and 2,2’-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as stabilizer and initiator, respectively. The magnetic microspheres obtained were characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The results showed that the magnetic microspheres had an average size of-1μm with superparamagnetic characteristics. The saturation magnetization was found to be 4.5emu.g-1. There was abundance of epoxy groups with density of 0.028 mmol·g^-1 in microspheres. The magnetic PGMA microspheres have extensive potential uses in magnetic bioseparation and biotechnology.展开更多

Oleic acid coated magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles made by co-precipitation were first mixed with monomers of St, DVB, GMA, and benzoyl peroxide (BPO) to form oil in water suspension with the presence of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP-K30) as a stabilizer.Then the temperature of mixture was increased at a controlled rate to obtain small and relatively uniform droplets.Finally, the copolymerization reaction was initiated by the decomposition of BPO. The morphology and properties of magnetic PSt-DVB-GMA microspheres were examined by SEM, TEM, VSM, XRD and FT-IR. The magnetic microspheres obtained have very small size (about 4-7 μm) in diameter with narrow size distribution and superparamagnetic characteristics. Powder X-ray diffraction measurements show the inverse cubic spinel structure for the magnetite dispersed in polymer microspheres. FT-IR spectroscopy indicates extensive oxirane groups existed on the surface of magnetic PSt-DVB-GMA microspheres.展开更多
