H. Du et al., ASSEMBLY OF FE2O3 NANOPARTICLES WITH POLYMER MICROSPHERES BY ENCAPSULATED COPOLYMERIZATION, Gaodeng xuexiao huaxue xuebao, 16(11), 1995, pp. 33-36
Inorganic nanoparticles Fe2O3 in diameter of 3-5 nm have been assemble
d with polymer microspheres and then encapsulated in copolymer of St/B
A/AA by polymerization process. Fe2O3 encapsulated microspheres can be
obtained through interaction between surface groups of the two compon
ent particles and by adjusting the pH value in the emulsion. Pre-treat
ment of the composite particles using a certain amount of surfactant b
efore polymerization can give a good encapsulation.
