Synthesis of highly cross linked PMMA nanoparticles and their application in membrane and opal film

الملخص EN

and cross linked PMMA nanoparticles treatment with toluene gave opal film and membrane structure meanwhile treatment with THF showed only membrane structure.

The characterization of PMMA nanoparticles and their crosslinked ,membrane and opal film were done by FSEM , TEM and U.V.In this study, we report a new method for the synthesis of highly crosslinked PMMA nanoparticles and their application in membrane and opal film fabrication .

Cross linked PMMA nanoparticles were synthesized by using DVB as cross linker at 100 0C by soap-free emulsion polymerization.

Membrane and opal film were synthesized from free PMMA nanoparticles and cross linked PMMA nanoparticles in different organic solvents.
