Strongly luminescent silver nanoclusters with tunable emission are directly synthesized in organic polar and apolar solvents. We show that an amphiphilic polystyrene-block-poly(methacrylic acid) block copolymer can be universally used as their support medium. A remarkable similarity in spectroscopic properties is observed between these clusters and charge-transfer organic dyes.

Grafted copolymer (sodium alginate (Na. Alg)- acrylic acid (AcA)– methacrylic (MAcA)) was prepared by the gamma irradiation-induced copolymerization in presence of N, N-methylene bisacrylamide (MBA) as a co monomer crosslinker. The functionality, morphology and thermal stability have been examined using FTIR spectroscopy, SEM, TGA-DTA, respectively. surface grafted shows smooth relatively homog...

Polymerization was carried out using the method of radiation initiation. Experiments were on methacrylic acid derivatives with bulky substituents (isodecyl and benzyl). The regularities its formation are investigated. conditions for obtaining a homogeneous copolymer determined. A polymer molecular weight more than 10 6 g/mol obtained. An increase in viscosity an temperature solution shown.

The electrochemical properties of a solid polymer electrolyte consisting of a diblock copolymer and lithium bis oxalato borate, LiBC4O8 LiBOB salt, is reported. The spherical microphase-separated diblock copolymer is composed of a majority poly ethylene oxide PEO block and a minority random copolymer block of methyl methacrylate MMA and lithium salt of methacrylic acid MAALi , PEO-bPMMA-ran-PMA...

The effects of the monomer ratio, surfactant, and crosslinker contents on the particle size and phase-transition behavior of the copolymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-methacrylic acid) (PNIPAAm–MAA) were investigated with Fourier transform infrared, differential scanning calorimetry, and dynamic laser scattering techniques. In addition to the thermoresponsive property of poly(N-isopropylacryl...

In addition, each capsule contains the following inactive ingredients: acetyltributyl citrate, ammoniomethacrylate copolymer-NF, D & C Red #28, D & C Yellow #10, D & C Yellow #10 Aluminum Lake, ethylcellulose, FD & C Blue #1 Aluminum Lake, FD & C Blue #2 Aluminum Lake, FD & C Red #40, FD & C Red #40 Aluminum Lake, gelatin-NF, magnesium stearate, methacrylic acid copolymer-NF, propylene glycol, ...

Carvacrol is one of the main components of the EO of some Labiatae (Laminaceae) members like oregano, thyme and savory. Carvacrol has a lot of health benefits for example, antibacterial, and antioxidant activity.We synthesized some silicon derivatives of carvacrol, and characterized them by standard methods. Then the monomer of dimethylvinylsilyl carvacrol was synthesized. Copolymer of this mon...

Acrylamide (AM) and methacrylic acid (MAA) copolymer microgels were prepared by a reverse suspension polymerization technique. The microgels were used as templates for the preparation of silver-poly(acrylamide-co-methacrylic acid) [Ag-P(AM-co-MAA)] composite microspheres. The surface structures of the microspheres prepared in this way are characterized by zigzag-like structures. It was found th...

A new and general design strategy is presented for amphiphilic block copolymers whose micellar aggregates can be dissociated by light. A diblock copolymer composed of hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and a hydrophobic polymethacrylate bearing pyrene pendant groups (PPy) was synthesized using ATRP. Upon UV light irradiation of polymer micellar solutions, the photosolvolysis of pyrene moiet...
