摘要
Polystyrene latex particles were prepared by using an emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization with two ionic initiators: potassium persulfate (KPS) and 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane)dihydrochloride (AIBA). The purpose of this study was to obtain polystyrene latex with a good stability in time, a high surface charge density and a small particle size (between 100 and 1000 nm). We used two distinctive molar concentrations for both initiators: 5.5 mM and 55 mM based on aqueous phase. The analysis showed that in the case of KPS initiator the latexes stability was better. With AIBA as initiator smaller latex particles can be achieved. A high surface charge density was measured for large initiator concentration. We achieved satisfying results with both initiators, the optimal condition of polymerization depending on the subsequent utilization of the latex. The SEM images showed that latexes containing bentonite and latexes with no clay have similar size.
