AbstractAmphiphilic diblock copolymer poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PMMA-b-PAA) was prepared by 1,1-diphenylethene (DPE) method. Firstly, free radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate was carried out with AIBN as initiator in the presence of DPE, giving a DPE-containing PMMA precursor with controlled molecular weight. tert-Butyl acrylate (tBA) was then polymerized in the presence of the PMMA precursor, and PMMA-b-PtBA diblock copolymer with controlled molecular weight was prepared. Finally, amphiphilic diblock copolymer PMMA-b-PAA was obtained by hydrolysis of PMMA-b-PtBA. The formation of PMMA-b-PAA was confirmed by 1H NMR spectrum and gel permeation chromatography. Transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering were used to detect the self-assembly behavior of the amphiphilic diblock polymers in methanol.

ABSTRACTSolid sol of silver in poly(methyl methacrylate), Ag/PMMA, was prepared by bulk polymerization of methyl methacrylate solution of silver (I) triflluoroacetate (AgTfa) and followed by postheating. The formation of the metallic Ag nanocluster was characterized by visible spectroscopy, and effects of the concentrations of AIBN and AgTfa and the heat-treatment duration on the formation of Ag cluster were investigated. Furthermore, based on the kinetic study of MMA in the presence of AgTfa, possible mechanism for the reduction and agglomeration of silver is proposed.
