pH-induced deswelling kinetics of sterically stabilized poly(2-vinylpyridine) microgels probed by stopped-flow light scattering

Near-monodisperse, sterically stabilized poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP) microgels were synthesized by emulsion polymerization. These particles exhibited completely reversible pH-responsive swelling/deswelling behavior in aqueous solution. Stopped-flow light scattering was employed to investigate the k...

520 |a Near-monodisperse, sterically stabilized poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP) microgels were synthesized by emulsion polymerization. These particles exhibited completely reversible pH-responsive swelling/deswelling behavior in aqueous solution. Stopped-flow light scattering was employed to investigate the kinetics of pH-induced deswelling in highly dilute dispersions. Upon a pH jump from 2 to various final solution pH values (>or=5.4), the scattered light intensity of an aqueous dispersion of a 1,960 nm microgel exhibited an abrupt initial increase, followed by a gradual decrease to the final equilibrium value. The whole microgel-to-latex deswelling process occurred over time scales of approximately 0.5-1.0 s, which is much slower than the kinetics for latex-to-microgel swelling. The microgel deswelling kinetics depends on the final pH, with a higher final pH leading to a faster rate of shrinkage. Close inspection of the deswelling kinetics during the early stages (<0.2 s) revealed that initial microgel collapse occurred within approximately 50 ms, with more rapid transitions being observed when higher final pH values were targeted. Addition of external salt significantly accelerates the kinetics of deswelling. Systematic studies of the microgel-to-latex transition for a series of six near-monodisperse P2VP particles (with swollen microgel diameters ranging from 1270 to 4230 nm) has also been investigated. The characteristic deswelling time for initial microgel collapse, tau deswell, correlated fairly well with the initial swollen microgel radius, R, in agreement with the Tanaka equation. Moreover, the collective diffusion coefficient of the gel network, D, calculated from the slope of the tau deswell- R (2) curve, was of the order of 10 (-7) cm (2) s (-1)
