The diameter and shell thickness of the hollow SiO2 spheres increase with increasing the latex template diameter at a given mass ratio of SiO2 to latex template. The diameter and shell thickness of the hollow SiO2 spheres also increase with increasing the mass ratios of SiO2 to latex template. The presence of carboxylic acid groups on the surfaces of polystyrene-methyl acrylic acid latex templates favors the formation of dense and uniform SiO2 shells. The hollow SiO2 sphere is constructed by mesoporous shell with large specific surface area. When glyphosate is used as a release model chemical, glyphosate release rate is tuned by varying the shell thickness.展开更多

The ratio of monomer to excimer intensities ( I m/ I e) of pyrene increases as polymerization proceeds. The increase of I m/ I e is ascribed to the increase of microviscosity surrounding the probes forming excimer during polymerization. The linear relationship between the changing rate of I m/ I e and the polymerization rate of styrene is obtained. Therefore, I m/ I e may be used to monitor the progress of the polymerization of styrene.展开更多

Both adsorption pH and surface properties had a considerable effect on the adsorption amount, while adsorption temperature was less significant. Ammonium polystyrene would be a better candidate for microcystin-LR adsorption at neutral pH conditions.展开更多
