Production of Polymeric Nanocomposites Using Mechanochemical Polymerization

Mechanochemical solid-state polymerization. VIII. Novel composite polymeric prodrugs prepared by mechanochemical polymerization in the presence of pharmaceutical aids.

We carried out the mechanochemical polymerization of methacryloyl derivatives of acetoaminophen and 5-fluorouracil in the presence of lactose. The reaction proceeded readily and the polymeric prodrugs were quantitatively produced. This method produces powdered polymeric prodrugs in which fine particles of lactose are homogeneously dispersed, since the reaction proceeds quantitatively through a ...

Synthesis and Characterization of Polymeric Nanocomposites Obtained by Frontal Polymerization

Frontal Polymerization 1,2 (FP) is an innovative technique that converts a monomer into a polymer as a result of the propagation of a reaction front along the reactor. In this work, the above technique has been used for the first time to synthesize nanocomposites, mainly based on hydrogels. Indeed, montmorillonite (MMT)-type clays and polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) have been dispe...

Novel Manufacturing Technolory of Polymeric Nanocomposites Using Supercritical Fluid Process

Recently, Supercritical fluids have been used in material synthesis and processing because of their special properties such as high diffusivity, low viscosity, and low surface tension. Supercritical carbon dioxide is the most attractive because it is non-toxic, non-flammable, and has moderate critical temperature and critical pressure. Moreover, and can also swell most polymers. In this study, ...
