Full textThe knowledge of the physico-chemical properties of polymer solutions for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is crucial to optimize the process. The purpose of this work was to consolidate and complete an universal viscosity model depending on C[η] parameter. The later allows taking into account the degree of interpenetration of polymer chains (critical concentration, C*, diluted and semi-diluted solutions). Various polymer parameters have been studied as the effects of microstructures, polymer size (molar mass and dispersity) as well as chemical composition. A library of polymer models was elaborated by controlled radical polymerization (RADT/MADIX). Series of polyacrylamides, statistical and asymmetric copolymers of acrylamide-sodium acrylate and post-hydrolyzed polyacrylamides were synthesized and characterized by steric exclusion chromatography and capillary rheology and the analytical protocols and techniques were optimized. The effects of the microstructure onto dimensional, rheological and complexation physico-chemical properties were determined

Full textThe degradation of the RAFT agent by addition of KPS initiator revealed unambigueous evidence on the mechanism of entry in heterophase polymerization. These results showed that even extremely hydrophilic primary radicals, such as sulfate ion radical stemming from the KPS initiator, can enter the polymer particles without necessarily having propagated and reached a certain chain length. Moreover, these results recommend the employment of azo-initiators instead of persulfates for the application in seeded heterophase polymerization with RAFT agents.
The significant slower rate of transportation of the RAFT agent to the polymer particles when its solvent (styrene) was replaced with a more hydrophilic monomer (methyl methacrylate) lead to the conclusion that a complicated cooperative and competitive interplay of solubility parameters and interaction parameter with the particles exist, determining an effective transportation of the organic molecules to the polymer particles through the aqueous phase. The choice of proper solutions of even the most hydrophobic organic molecules can provide the opportunity of their sorption into the polymer particles. Examples to support this idea were given by loading the extremely stiff fluorescent molecule, pentacene, and very hydrophobic dye, Sudan IV, into the polymer particles.
Finally, the first application of RAFT at room temperature heterophase polymerization is reported. The results show that the RAFT process is effective at ambient temperature; however, the rate of fragmentation is significantly slower. The elevation of the reaction temperature in the presence of the RAFT agent resulted in faster polymerization and higher molar mass, suggesting that the fragmentation rate coefficient and its dependence on the temperature is responsible for the observed retardation.
Um neue Materialien mit außergewöhnlichen Eigenschaften zu erstellen, muss man in der Lage sein, die Struktur der Moleküle zu kontrollieren, aus denen die Materialien bestehen. Für das Maßschneidern solcher neuer Eigenschaften besitzen Polymere ein großes Potenzial: Dies sind sehr lange Moleküle, die aus einer großen Zahl von kleineren Einheiten aufgebaut sind. Proteine und DNS sind Beispiele für natürliche Polymere; Plastik und Gummi sind Beispiele für künstliche Polymere. Letztere werden üblicherweise durch das Zusammenfügen einer Reihe von kleineren Molekülen, den Monomeren, hergestellt. Schon lange versuchen Wissenschaftler, die Anordnung, Anzahl und Art dieser Monomere zu kontrollieren, die sich in der Struktur der Polymermoleküle widerspiegeln. Die gebräuchlichste Methode zur kommerziellen Produktion von Polymeren ist die so genannte freie radikalische Polymerisation. Die Strukturkontrolle durch diese Methode ist jedoch relativ schwierig und wurde maßgeblich erst im letzten Jahrzehnt entwickelt. Trotz der Existenz einiger effektiver Kontrollmethoden ist ihre industrielle Anwendung bislang sehr beschränkt, weil sie nicht für die Emulsionspolymerisation verwendbar sind. Die Emulsionspolymerisation ist die gängigste Technik in der industriellen Produktion von Polymeren. Es handelt sich dabei um ein vergleichsweise umweltfreundliches Verfahren, denn es werden keine organischen Lösungsmittel verwendet. Stattdessen dient Wasser als Lösungsmittel, in dem die Polymere in Form von kleinen, fein verteilten Partikeln vorliegen. In der Natur kommt dieses Prinzip beispielsweise in Pflanzen bei der Bildung von Kautschuk - allgemein als Latex bezeichnet - vor. Schließlich ist die Emulsionspolymerisation einfach durchzuführen: Das Produkt ist in vielen Fällen gebrauchsfertig, und es gibt viele technische Vorteile im Vergleich zu anderen Herstellungsprozessen.
Doch bevor die Probleme beim Einsatz von Kontrollmethoden in der Emulsionspolymerisation gelöst werden können, müssen erst ihre Ursachen geklärt werden. Dies ist eine unverzichtbare Vorraussetzung zum Übertragen von Forschungsergebnissen auf das tägliche Leben.
Ziel dieser Arbeit ist die Untersuchung der Probleme, die für die kontrollierte radikalische Polymerisation in Emulsion von Bedeutung sind. Die wichtigste Fragestellung in der Emulsionspolymerisation zielt auf die Löslichkeit der Reaktionskomponenten in den verschiedenen Phasen, wie z.B. in Wasser oder in den Polymerpartikeln. Die Kontrollmethode der Wahl für diese Arbeit ist "Reversibler Additions-Fragmentierungs Transfer" (RAFT). Die RAFT-Methode ist die modernste Kontrollmethode, und sie ist für viele Reaktionsbedingungen und viele Arten von Monomeren anwendbar.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: A novel approach to conducting controlled free radical polymerization in aqueous systems using Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer (RAFT) has been studied. When conducting RAFT in aqueous systems, reaction conditions must be chosen such that monomer transport across the aqueous-phase is either eliminated or facilitated. This is to prevent the formation of the red layer associated with RAFT in emulsions. The formation of the red layer is ascribed to the inability of waterinsoluble, dithiobenzoate-endcapped oligomers to be sufficiently transported across the aqueous phase. The novel approach in this study focussed on eliminating monomer transport and comprises two fundamental steps: the synthesis of dithiobenzoate-encapped oligomers in bulk followed by miniemulsification of these oligomers to yield a polymerizable miniemulsion. Dithioesters that act as chain transfer agents in the RAFT -process were synthesized in situ, thereby eliminating laborious and time-consuming organic purification procedures of dithioesters. In situ formation of the RAFT-agents involved conducting the reaction between di(thiobenzoyl) disulfide and conventional azo-initiators of differing structures in the presence of monomer. The structure of the chosen azo-initiator played a role in the efficiency of the RAFT process when the reaction was conducted in the presence of monomer to control the free radical polymerization process. Synthesis of the oligomers was performed by heating di(thiobenzoyl) disulfide and a selected azo-initiator, in the presence of monomer for a specific reaction duration in bulk. After the reaction was stopped, these oligomers were then miniemulsified by adding water, surfactant and cosurfactant, followed by the application of shear to form the resulting mini emulsion. The free radical polymerization of the dithiobenzoate-endcapped oligomers in the miniemulsion proceeded in a controlled manner with molecular weight increasing in a linear fashion with increasing conversion, while polydispersities remained low. The familiar red layer formation associated with RAFT polymerization in conventional emulsions was not observed under these conditions. The effects of changing the cosurfactant (hydrophobe) as well as changing the degree of polymerization of the emulsified oligomers were also investigated and described.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie is geloods om 'n nuwe benadering tot die beheerde vry-radikaal polimerisasie in water gebaseerde sisteme te ondersoek. Daar is spesifiek gekyk na die uitvoer van die RAFT (Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer) proses in emulsies. Wanneer RAFT in emulsies toegepas word, moet die toestande waaronder die reaksie uitgevoer word, versigtig opgestel word. Die toestande moet so gekies word dat die vervoer van monomere deur die waterfase óf geëlimineer word óf gefasiliteer word. Dit word gedoen om die faseskeiding in die vorm van 'n rooi laag, wat so kenmerkend van RAFT -polimerisasie in emulsies is, te voorkom. Hierdie faseskeiding vind plaas omdat die vervoer van ditiobensoaat endgroep-bevattende oligomere deur die waterfase tydens interval II, moeilik is a.g.v. hulle oplosbaarheid in water. Die nuwe benadering wat hier bestudeer is, het twee basiese stappe. Eerstens word die ditiobensoaat endgroep-bevattende oligomere in bulk gesintetiseer. Dit word gevolg deur die emulsifisering van die oligomere. Hierna vind verdere polimerisasie van die oligomere plaas deur die dormante oligomere te heraktiveer. Die ditio-esters wat as kettingoordrag agente optree in die RAFT proses, word in situ gesintetiseer. Hierdie modifikasie sny tydrowende organiese suiweringsmetodes uit. Die in situ RAFT agente word gesintetiseer deur di(tiobensoïel) disulfied met verskillende konvensionele azo-inisieerders te laat reageer. Die struktuur van die spesifieke azoinisieerder het wel 'n rol gespeel in die effektiwiteit van die RAFT proses om molekulêre massa te beheer as bg. reaksie in die teenwoordigheid van monomere uitgevoer is. Die sintese van die oligomere is gedoen deur di(tiobensoïel) en 'n azo-inisieerder te verhit in die teenwoordigheid van monomere. Die reaksie is gedoen in bulk en die graad van polimerisasie van die oligomere is beheer deur die reaksie te stop by verskillende tydstippe. Nadat die bulk reaksie gestop is, is hierdie oligomere ge-emulsifiseer deur die oligomere te meng met 'n seep, hidrofoob en water. Hierdie mengsel word dan onderwerp aan 'n vermengingskrag om 'n polimeriseerbare mini-emulsie te vorm. Die voortsetting van die polimerisasie van die oligomere in die mini-emulsie het op 'n beheerde wyse verloop, m.a.w. molekulêre massa wat linieêr toeneem met stygende omsetting. Polidispersiteit indekse van die polimere het deurentyd laag gebly in die stabielste sisteme. Onder hierdie toestande was daar geen kenmerkende rooi laagvorming te bespeur nie. Die effekte wat die verandering van die hidrofoob, asook die verandering van die graad van polimerisasie van die oligomere op die sisteem gehad het, is onder andere ook ondersoek en beskryf.

Full textThe aim of this work is to prepare Laponite RD-based nanocomposite latexes by aqueous emulsion polymerization, using the reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Laponite platelets were selected as the inorganic filler due, especially, to their anisotropic shape, which allows the production of nanostructured films, but also for their thermal and mechanical properties, their high chemical purity and the uniform dispersity of the platelets. Hydrophilic polymers (macroRAFT) composed of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), acrylic acid (AA) or N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) and comprising hydrophobic n-butyl acrylate (BA) units (in some cases) and trithiocarbonate terminal group were initially synthesized. Then, the interaction between the macroRAFTs and the clay was studied through the plot of adsorption isotherms. By acting as coupling agents and stabilizers, the macroRAFT agents were used in the emulsion copolymerization of methyl (meth)acrylate and BA by semi-continuous process in the presence of the clay. Hybrid latex particles with different morphologies were obtained and the results were associated to the nature and concentration of the RAFT (co)polymers, to the pH of the macroRAFT/Laponite dispersion, the glass transition temperature of the final copolymer (function of the composition of the hydrophobic monomers mixture) and to the polymerization conditions. The cryo-TEM images indicate the formation of polymerdecorated Laponite platelets (several latex particles located at the surface of the platelets), dumbbell-like, janus, Laponite-decorated (armored) latex particles, and multiple encapsulated particles (several platelets inside each latex particle). The mechanical properties of polymer/Laponite films were studied by dynamic mechanical analysis and correlated with the particles morphology and the films microstructure
Este trabalho de tese tem como objetivo a preparação de látices nanocompósitos à base da argila Laponita RD em emulsão aquosa, via polimerização radicalar controlada por transferência de cadeia via adição-fragmentação reversível (RAFT). A Laponita foi escolhida como carga inorgânica devido principalmente à forma anisotrópica de suas lamelas, o que permite a elaboração de filmes nanoestruturados, mas também por suas propriedades térmicas e mecânicas, por sua alta pureza química e pela distribuição uniforme, em termos de tamanho, de suas partículas. Inicialmente, polímeros hidrofílicos (macroRAFT) à base de poli(etileno glicol) (PEG), de ácido acrílico (AA) ou de metacrilato de N,N-dimetilaminoetila (DMAEMA) que contêm unidades hidrofóbicas de acrilato de nbutila (ABu) (em alguns casos) e um grupo tritiocarbonílico terminal foram sintetizados. Em seguida, a interação entre os macroagentes de controle (macroRAFTs) e a argila foi estudada através de isotermas de adsorção. Atuando como agentes de acoplamento e estabilizantes, esses macroRAFTs foram então utilizados na copolimerização em emulsão do (met)acrilato de metila e do ABu em processo semicontínuo na presença da argila Laponita. Partículas de látex híbrido de diferentes morfologias foram obtidas e os resultados foram correlacionados à natureza e à concentração dos macroRAFTs, ao pH da dispersão macroRAFT/Laponita, à temperatura de transição vítrea do copolímero final (função da composição da mistura de monômeros hidrofóbicos) e às condições de polimerização. As análises de cryo-TEM indicam a formação de lamelas de Laponita decoradas com partículas de polímero (várias partículas de látex localizadas na superfície das lamelas), de partículas do tipo dumbbell, janus, blindadas (partículas de látex decoradas com lamelas de argila em sua superfície) ou ainda de partículas multiencapsuladas (diversas lamelas encapsuladas dentro de uma única partícula de látex). As propriedades mecânicas dos filmes de polímero/Laponita foram estudadas por análise dinâmico-mecânica e correlacionadas à morfologia das partículas e à microestrutura dos filmes

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Living chains prepared by RAFT polymerization and NMP reactions using Z-carboxylate and Z-phosphate RAFT agents, and X-phosphate NMP initiators, were efficiently attached to the surface of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and used for the separation of dead chains formed in these polymerization reactions prior to the attachment of the RAFT agents and NMP initiators to the surface of MNPs. All the living chains that attach selectively to the surface of MNPs contained RAFT or NMP functionalities, had a low polydispersity index (PDI), and could be reactivated to form new polymer extensions or block copolymers with no detectable deviation from 100% efficiency. RAFT chains prepared by RAFT polymerization using the Z-carboxylate RAFT agent and an excess of free radical initiator were also attached to the surface of MNPs and separated in the presence of an external magnetic field. Separated RAFT-functional chains contained no dead chains formed by combination or disproportionation reactions, but a substantial amount of cross-terminated by-product with a low UV absorbance at 320 nm. The cross-termination of the intermediate radical formed in the RAFT polymerization reactions was also investigated in the monomer-excluded free radical reaction model of polystyryl benzyl-(4-carboxyl dithiobenzoate) and polystyryl ethyl-2-bromoisobutyrate. The Z-carboxylate 3- and 4-arm star polymers (formed by cross-termination reactions) were then efficiently attached to the surface of MNPs and separated from the remainder of the polymer solution. They were separated from MNPs and characterized by 1H and 13C-NMR spectroscopy, and MALDI-ToF-MS. Living chains prepared by a RAFT miniemulsion polymerization reaction using Z-carboxylate RAFT agent were attached to the surface of MNPs and used for the separation of all dead chains and uncontrolled high molecular weight polymer of secondary particle formations occur during a miniemulsion polymerization reaction prior to the attachment. Separated dead chains had high PDI values and contained a significant fraction of uncontrolled high molecular weight polymer that lacked RAFT functionality. Initiator-derived chains formed in RAFT polymerization reactions of styrene (St) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) using phosphate free radical (PFR) initiator were selectively attached to the surface of MNPs and separated from R-group-derived polymer chains in the presence of an external magnetic field. All separated initiator-derived chains contained large fractions of dead chains with weak UV absorbance, and which lacked RAFT functionality, and small fractions of RAFT polymer chains. The separated initiator-derived chains had higher PDI values than the as-prepared polymer in the polymerization of St, but lower PDI values than the as-prepared polymer in the polymerization of MMA. RAFT agents attached to the surface of MNPs by the Z group were used as mediating agents for the synthesis of polymers grafted to the surface of MNPs. The polymers grafted to the surface of MNPs were separated from the solution of the free polymer by applying an external magnetic field. The amounts of the polymers grafted to the surface of MNPs greatly increased as the number of RAFT agents attached to the surface of MNPs decreased. When ethyl acetate was used as solvent, it reached 65% by weight and 50% by number of chains. Separated polymers grafted to the surface of MNPs had high PDI values and contained RAFT functionality. Investigations into the kinetics of the RAFT-mediated polymerization reaction on the surface of MNPs revealed that the polymerization reaction mediated using a RAFT agent attached by its Z group to the surface of MNPs had a faster polymerization rate than that mediated using a free Z group RAFT agent. The molecular weight of the grafted polymer increased linearly with conversion, and the reaction rate was pseudo-first-order.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Lewende polimeerkettings, berei deur middel van RAFT-beheerde polimerisasie en NMP reaksies waarin Z-karboksilaat en Z-fosfaat RAFT-verbindings en 'n X-fosfaat NMP afsetter gebruik is, is geheg aan die oppervlaktes van magnetisenanopartikels (MNPs), en gebruik vir die skeiding van dooie kettings wat tydens die RAFT en NMP reaksies gevorm is. Alle lewende kettings wat aan die oppervlakte van die MNPs geheg is, is geskei van die oorblywende polimeeroplossing deur die aanwending van ‗n eksterne magnetise veld. Alle kettings wat selektief aan die oppervlaktes van die MNPs gekoppel is met RAFT of NMP funksionaliteit, het ‗n laë poliverspreidingswaarde (PDI) gehad en kon heraktiveer word om ‗n nuwe polimeerverlengings of blokkopolimere te vorm met geen merkbare afwyking van 100% doeltreffendheid nie. RAFT-kettings wat gedurende RAFT-polimerisasie met 'n Z-karboksilaat RAFT-agent en oormaat vrye-radikaalafsetter berei is, is ook geheg aan die oppervlaktes van MNPs en geskei in die teenwoordigheid van 'n eksterne magnetiese veld. Die geskeide RAFT-funksionele kettings het geen dooie kettings bevat nie (gevorm deur kombinasie reaksies), maar 'n aansienlike hoeveelheid ongekontroleerde hoë molekulêremassa polimeer (met lae UV absorpsie by 320 nm). Die kruis-beëindiging van die intermediêre radikaal wat gevorm is tydens die RAFT-proses is ondersoek in die monomeer-uitsluitende vrye-radikaalreaksiemodel van polistirielbensiel-4-karboksielditiobensoaat en polistirieletiel-2-bromoisobutiraat. Die Z-karboksilaat 3- en 4-arm sterpolimere (gevorm a.g.v. kruis-terminasiereaksies) is effektief geheg aan die oppervlaktes van MNPs en geskei van die res van die polimeeroplossing, en daarna gekarakteriseer met behulp van 1H en 13C KMR, en MALDI-ToF-MS. Lewende kettings, berei m.b.v. RAFT miniemulsiepolimerisasies met 'n Z-karboksilaat RAFT-agent, is geheg aan die oppervlaktes van MNPs en gebruik vir die skeiding van alle dooie kettings en sekondêre partikels wat tydens die reaksie voor die aanhegting gevorm het. Die geskeide dooie kettings wat agtergebly het, het 'n wye PDI getoon en het 'n aansienlike hoeveelheid ongekontroleerde hoë molekulêremassa polimeer, met geen RAFT-funksionaliteit nie, bevat. Afsetterafkomstigekettings wat gevorm is tydens die RAFT polimerisasiereaksies van stireen (St) en metielmetakrilaat (MMA) met 'n fosfaat-vrye vrye-radikaalafsetter is selektief geheg aan die oppervlaktes van MNPs en geskei van R-groep-afkomstige polimeerkettings in die teenwoordigheid van 'n eksterne magnetise veld. Alle geskeide afsetter-afkomstige kettings het 'n groot hoeveelheid dooie kettings gehad (met swak UV absorpsie) en met geen RAFT-funksionalilteit nie, en klein fraksies van RAFT-polimeerkettings. Die geskeide afsetter-afkomstige kettings het hoër PDI waardes gehad as die ('as-prepared') polimeer in die polimerisasie van St, maar laer PDI waardes as die ('as-prepared') polimeer in die polimerisasie van MMA. RAFT-verbindings wat aan die oppervlaktes van die MNPs geheg is deur middel van die Z-groep is as bemiddellingsagente (Eng: mediating agents) gebruik vir die sintese van polimere wat geënt is aan die oppervlakte aan MNPs. Die polimere wat aan die oppervlakte van die MNPs geënt is is geskei van die res van die polimeeroplossing deur die aanwending van ‗n eksterne magnetise veld. Die hoeveelhede van die polimere wat aan die oppervlaktes van die MNPs geënt is het sterk toegeneem namate die aantal RAFT-agente wat aan die oppervlaktes van MNPs geheg is afgeneem het. Wanneer etielasetaat as oplosmiddel gebruik is, was die waardes 55% m.b.t. gewig en 45% m.b.t. die aantal kettings. Die geskeide polimere wat aan die oppervlaktes van MNPs geënt is het hoë PDI getoon en het RAFT-funksionaliteit bevat. Die kinetika van die RAFT-beheerde polimerisasiereaksies van St, wat gebruik maak van ‗n RAFT-agent wat aan die oppervlakte van die MNPs geheg is deur middel van die Z-groep, is ook ondersoek. Die tempo van polimerisasie was vinniger in die geval waarin die RAFT-agent geheg is deur sy Z-groep aan die oppervlakte van die MNPs as die reaksie met 'n RAFT agent met 'n vrye Z-groep. Die molekulêremassas van die entpolimere het liniêr toegeneem met omsetting, en die reaksie was pseudo-eerste-orde.

Full textThe work presented in this thesis displays the controlled radical polymerization of ethylene at low temperature (70 °C) and low pressure (200 bar) and the synthesis of block copolymers featuring polyethylene segments. Four polymerization techniques, commonly used in macromolecular engineering, were studied: NMP, CMRP, RAFT/MADIX and ESCP. Our investigation of the use of SG1 nitroxide (NMP) and cobalt (II) acetylacetonate (CMRP) as controlling agents demonstrated their inability to control the polymerization of ethylene. Nonetheless, an unexpected reaction with cobalt (II) acetylacetonate was observed. The coupling reaction between propagating radicals appeared to be favored by the presence of this compound. On the other hand, the first controlled polymerization of ethylene was successfully achieved by using xanthate (RAFT/MADIX). A linear increase of molecular weight with conversion and low polydispersities were observed for the produced polyethylenes. The reaction was demonstrated to be a pseudo-living polymerization by the synthesis of block copolymers poly(vinyl acetate)-b-polyethylene. In addition, midchain-functionalized polyethylenes and ABA type block copolymers, with polystyrene or polyacrylate as the A block and polyethylene as the B block, were also prepared using nitrone based polymerization technique (ESCP)

Full textSince poly(vinylidene chloride) (PVDC)-based copolymers present unique oxygen and water vapor barrier properties, they are a material of choice for pharmaceutical blisters and food packaging. PVDC-based latexes used in coating applications are generally stabilized by low molecular weight surfactants, which are prone to migration in the film after coating and cause material degradation. The main goal of our project is the synthesis of surfactant-free PVDC-based latexes by using hydrophilic macromolecular RAFT agents (macroRAFT). The latter plays the role of precursor of stabilizer and limits migration phenomena by being covalently bound to particles. In a first part, RAFT polymerization of VDC was studied in homogenous solution. Well-defined statistical and amphiphilic blocks copolymers based on PVDC were synthesized. Then, PVDC-based latexes were obtained by emulsion polymerization mediated by hydrophilic non-ionic and pH sensitive macroRAFT pre-formed in organic solvent. Those hydrophilic segments were chemically anchored to the particles. A fully water-based process was developed by synthesizing in water pH sensitive and permanently charged hydrophilic macroRAFT which were further used directly in emulsion polymerization without additional purification. Stable PVDC-based latexes exhibiting solids content of 40 % were obtained using a very small quantity of macroRAFT, fulfilling the industrial requirements. Drying of self-stabilized latexes led to transparent films which display only a slight whitening after water exposition contrary to the commercial film reference and better barrier properties

Full textFluoropolymers constitute a specific class of polymers, with remarkable properties (high resistance to chemicals and heat, ferroelectricity and piezoelectricity for semi-crystalline polymers, to name a few). Fluoropolymers have found many industrial applications. However, fluoropolymers have not yet attracted all the interest they deserve from the scientific community. It is indeed difficult to prepare well-defined fluorinated polymeric architectures. The synthesis techniques developed and used so far allow the preparation of interesting architectures, but they suffer from two major drawbacks: 1) They do not allow access to high molar mass, and 2) The resulting architectures are ill-defined. As a result, physical chemistry studies of the phase segregation phenomena in films or in the bulk, or of the crystallization of fluorinated polymers were for the most part limited to homopolymers and blends. Similarly, very few studies of the self-assembly in solution of fluorinated polymeric architectures have been reported. Throughout deeper kinetic study, NMR characterizations and DFT calculation, this study reveals the remarkable efficiency of the RAFT polymerization to synthesize well-defined PVDF–based architectures. Self-assembly of PVDF-b-PVA block copolymers as well as polymerization-induced self-assembly of PVAc-b-PVDF block copolymers led to the first crystalline core/shell and desert-rose PVDF-based nanostructures

Full textWe herein report the surface modification of magnetite nanoparticle (MNP) with copolymers containing active azlactone rings via a grafting ‘from’ and grafting ‘onto’ controlled radical polymerization (CRP) for use as a nano-solid support for immobilization with biomolecules. Three different approaches were presented as following. First, synthesis of poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate-stat-2-vinyl-4,4-dimethylazlactone) (PEGMA-stat-VDM)-grafted MNP via a grafting ‘from’ atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and its application as a platform for conjugating thymine peptide nucleic acid (PNA) monomer were presented. The presence of polymeric shell and the immobilization of thymine PNA on MNP core were confirmed by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) techniques. The second strategy is based on the synthesis of MNP grafted with PEGMA and VDM via ATRP for conjugation with folic acid (FA). The existence of PEGMA and VDM in the structure was characterized by FTIR, TGA and VSM. After the FA conjugation, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) results indicated that the FA-conjugated MNP having high VDM content exhibited good dispersibility in water.Third, the synthesis of MNP grafted with poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(2-vinyl-4,4-dimethylazlactone) (PEO-b-PVDM) block copolymer via a grafting ‘onto’ strategy and its application as recyclable magnetic nano-support for adsorption with antibody were studied. PEO-b-PVDM diblock copolymers were first synthesized using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and then grafted onto amino-functionalized MNP. TEM images and photo correlation spectroscopy (PCS) indicated an improvement in the particle dispersibility in water after coating with the copolymers. The nanoclusters with PEO-b-PVDM copolymer coating were used as recyclable magnetic nano-supports for adsorption with antibody

Full textThe aim of this work was synthesis of well-defined amphiphilic block copolymers in homogenous and heterogenous media using RAFT polymerization (Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer) and to study their self-assemblies in water. A one-pot process in water was developed for the synthesis of amphiphilic block copolymers that simultaneously to their growth self-assembled into nano-particles. This method called “polymerization-induced self-assembly” (PISA) allows the synthesis of large quantities of amphiphilic block copolymers in aqueous media without any intermediate purification step. During this process, two successive polymerization steps are performed in the same reactor. The first step consists in the synthesis of the hydrophilic macromolecular RAFT agents (macroRAFT agents) possessing a trithiocarbonate reactive group via RAFT in water. Without purification, these macroRAFT agents are reactivated for the polymerization of a hydrophobic monomer in the same reactor via RAFT emulsion polymerization. The resulting amphiphilic block copolymers self-assembled into nano-objects with various morphologies (spherical micelles, nanofibers and vesicles). Different parameters (pH, temperature, natureof hydrophilic and hydrophobic monomers, solids contents, molar masse of hydrophilic and hydrophobic blocks, etc) control these morphologies. Besides, the viscoelastic properties of polymeric nanofibers suspensions were studied as a function of the temperature. Below the Tg of polystyrene core at 25°C, the scaling law from viscoelastic behavior of these nanofiber suspensions the Doi−Edwards theory on the Brownian dynamics of rigid rods. Above Tg at 130°C, the nanofibers are flexible and it observed that their dynamics obey the power laws for polymer chains in solution

Full textThis work describes the synthesis of self-stabilized PVDF particles by combining the advantages of emulsion polymerization with those of controlled radical polymerization (CRP) using the RAFT process. First, a commercial methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) carrying a hydroxyl function (PEG-OH) was used for the stabilization of PVDF particles. The stabilization is provided by irreversible transfer reactions occurring along the PEG-OH chains leading to the formation of a grafted copolymer stabilizer in situ. This PEG-OH was then chain-end functionalized to introduce a xanthate group (macroRAFT, PEG-X). The experiments carried out in the presence of this macroRAFT demonstrated a strong implication of the xanthate chain-end in the VDF emulsion polymerization process. Indeed, particle sizes of 200 nm and 70 nm were obtained in the presence of PEG-OH and PEG-X, respectively. This trend was confirmed during the study of the impact of various parameters such as the molar mass of the PEG chain or the initiator amount. Additional analyses (surface tension measurement and differential scanning calorimetry) allowed to compare the anchoring efficiency of PEG-X and PEG-OH. The macroRAFT amount was then increased to form particles composed of block copolymer. In-depth NMR analyses were then conducted to identify the species created during the VDF emulsion polymerization process in the presence of PEG-OH and PEG-X. In comparison, PEGs carrying reactive functions such as (meth)acrylate and thiol were used as stabilizers and their efficiencies compared to those of PEG-OH and PEG-X. The macroRAFT architecture was also varied using a difunctional macroRAFT (X-PEG-X) and a grafted polymer (PPEGA-X). Finally, PVDF latexes were synthesized with poly((meth)acrylic acid) (P(M)AA) functionalized by either a trithiocarbonate or a xanthate. Like previously, several parameters were varied such as the macromolecular chain length, the initiator amount and the macroRAFT amount. Again, these studies demonstrated the strong impact of the RAFT chain-end in the stabilization of PVDF particles

Full textThis work is focused on improving the biospecificity properties of fluorescent polymer probes, with controlled architectures, for two main applications: the in vivo targeting of cancer tumors and the labeling of proteins for in cellulo studies. For a targeted imaging of tumor angiogenesis in vivo, targeting systems presenting two levels of multivalency were developed by combining both i) well-controlled polymers synthesized by RAFT polymerization and the PISA process, ii) peptide tetravalent clusters exhibiting a high affinity for the αvβ3 integrins and iii) fluorophores emitting in the far red / near-infrared for a monitoring in vitro and in vivo by optical microscopy. Two types of probes were synthesized, linear conjugates and hairy nanoparticles. Multivalent presentation of the peptide cluster induced a significant increase of the affinity for αvβ3 integrins. The first biological evaluations also indicated an efficient cellular internalization of polymer probes mediated by the peptide clusters and a selective labeling of cells over-expressing αvβ3 integrins. For protein labeling, two strategies were explored: the labeling of native proteins by covalent coupling of ω-functional polymer probes and the labeling of recombinant proteins by probes bearing a specific ligand at one chain-end. For the first strategy, an activated ester function was introduced at the ω-end of polymer probes by thiol-ene chemistry to label the lysine residues of native proteins. This approach resulted in a poly-labeling, difficult to control but providing highly bright bioconjugates. For the second strategy, a nitrilotriacetic acid group (NTA) was introduced at the α-end of polymers probes to specifically label Histidine tagged proteins. This approach enabled an efficient labeling of different proteins with a more precise control of the number of probes per protein and of the binding site. Finally, following this work, a new synthetic strategy of sequenced polymers by successive addition of hetero-bifunctional monomers using highly efficient, selective and orthogonal chemical reactions was proposed and validated
