Colloidal-polymer process

However, emulsion polymerizations involve the formation of colloidal polymer particles that are essentially permanently suspended in the reaction medium. The reaction mechanism involves the migration of monomer molecules from liquid monomer droplets to sites of polymerization that originate in micelles consisting of surface-active agent molecules surrounding monomer molecules. Emulsion polymerizations are usually characterized by the requirement of surfactants during the initiation of the process and by the use of water-soluble initiators. This process also permits good control of the exothermic nature of the polymerization.

Membrane Filters. The cellulose-derivative membrane filters, as we know them, have been available since 1927 and are now commonplace [29,32,35-38]. The classic membrane filters are prepared by means of a colloid chemical process gelation of concentrated colloidal solutions of polymers and removal of solvent to leave pores. Although porous, in practice they differ from the capillary model of a pore in that their stmcture is not regular. A classic membrane filter has three different structures the upper surface structure, the inner structure, and the lower surface stmcture [29,35-38]. These filters contain tortuous channels, and the pore sizes inside the filter are larger than those on the surface of a membrane filter. The diameters of these channels can be closely controlled during manufacture. The mechanisms involved in the capture of...

The application of widespread standard polymer processing techniques to the formation of colloidal crystals was introduced by Ruhl et al. [60]. They demonstrated the fabrication of a large colloidal crystal film, which comprises core-shell latex particles. Upon coagulation the soft shell of the particles causes the formation of a rubbery mass, which can be uniaxially compressed. The radial horizontal flow during the compression induces crystallization of the particles from the surface of the plates inward. The soft shell constitutes the matrix in which the hard spheres are embedded. This technique is promising for efficient application to other polymer processing methods like extrusion or injection molding.

Based on the DLS measurements it is possible to find particle size distributions of polymers and proteins, particle aggregation phenomena, micellar systems and their stability, micro-emulsion technology, colloid behaviour, nucleation processes and protein crystallization. DLS is a non-destructive and convenient method and so it can find application in various branches of science. In chemistry it finds application in topics of colloids, polymers, emulsions, suspensions, nanoparticles, and in physics, applications such as in astrophysics and atmosphere physics and in biology it involves biophysics and biomedicine applications.
