摘要
The microstructure and swelling properties of large-sized cross-linked polymer microspheres were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), microscope and laser diffracting measurements. The results demonstrated that the original shape of the microspheres was typically spherical with the diameter range of 200 nm to 20 μm. When the microspheres were dispersed in water, their size increased due to swelling, with the diameters in the range of 2 μm to 100 μm, and the volume of the swelled microspheres was almost 30-80 times larger than that of the microspheres without swelling, but the spherical conformation was remained. The size of microspheres reached its maximum value, when the microspheres dispersed in water for 2 h, and then was almost constant with the swelling time further prolonging. The size of microspheres was decreased in a small range with the increase of salt mass concentration in the dispersion system, and was increased with the rise of temperature. After high-rate sheared, the shape and size of microspheres changed insignificantly. Therefore, the microspheres have good resistance to high temperature, high salinity and shearing.
