This article focuses on the adequate surfactant concentration regime in which MMA droplets are stabilized sufficiently against coalescence during high-pressure homogenization but still no diffusion processes from droplets to micelles take place in the polymerization. Monomer miniemulsions with different surfactant concentrations were prepared with different energy inputs. Emulsions result that ...

The sensitive and selective detection of nitroaromatic explosives is great significance to national security human health. Herein, the novel linear polymer l-PAnTPE cross-linked PAnTPE nanoparticles based on anthracene tetraphenylethene groups were designed successfully synthesized via Suzuki-miniemulsion polymerization. particle sizes polymers are around 73 nm, making them well dispersible in ...

Herein, 5,5′‐bis(4‐biphenylyl)‐2,2′‐bithiophene (BP2T or PPTTPP) nanocrystals are prepared via a modified miniemulsion technique. X‐ray diffraction and selected area electron analyses reveal that the BP2T molecules stand almost upright against crystal basal plane. With decreasing nanocrystal size, peak energies of photoluminescence (PL) spectra blue‐shifted in photon energy range from bulk to m...

Miniemulsification and emulsion/solvent evaporation techniques were combined to produce poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) nanoparticles. Those nanoparticles were prepared with different PHBV molar masses and PHBV concentrations to verify their effect on the final particle size. Nanoparticles with an average diameter of 133 nm were obtained when a low molar mass (Mw = 44,350 g/...
