Oxygen and carbon dioxide dual gas-responsive and switchable microgels prepared from emulsion copolymerization of fluoro- and amino-containing monomers
We report herein the design and preparation of microgels that are responsive to both O2 and CO2 gases. The microgels were synthesized through soap-free emulsion copolymerization of O2-responsive monomer 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene (FS) and CO2-responsive monomer 2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (...

| Zusammenfassung: | We report herein the design and preparation of microgels that are responsive to both O2 and CO2 gases. The microgels were synthesized through soap-free emulsion copolymerization of O2-responsive monomer 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene (FS) and CO2-responsive monomer 2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DEA) with N,N'-methylenebis(acrylamide) (BisAM) as the cross-linker. The P(DEA-co-FS) microgels dispersed in aqueous solution could undergo volume phase transitions triggered by O2 and/or CO2 aeration. The particles were very responsive to CO2, while their responsivity to O2 was moderate. Microgels having different levels of the responsivity could be designed and prepared by varying the FS content in the copolymer. The phase transitions were also highly reversible, and the initial states of microgels could be easily recovered by "washing off" the trigger gases with N2. Multicycle O2, CO2, and N2 aerations were applied, and no loss in the dual gas responsivity and switchability was observed |
