Fluorocarbon–hydrocarbon incompatibility in micellar polymerizations
Abstract.
A new approach to micellar polymerization is described. It is well known that hydrocarbons and
fluorocarbons exhibit local phase segregation (demixing) owing to mutual antipathy; here this effect is
employed in monomer swollen micelles with appropriate combinations of hydrocarbon and fluorocarbon
monomers and surfactants. A matrix of these hydro- and fluorocarbon components has been investigated
to delineate the effects of H–F antipathy on the outcomes of polymerization reactions to generate
nanolatices of different size (and possibly morphology). Phase diagrams, 1H NMR and small-angle
neutron (SANS) data have been generated to characterize the systems, indicating new routes to influence
nanolatex formation.
