L1 and L2 domains of the water/AOT/MMA ternary system were investigated at 22±1°C. Free radical polymerizations were conducted in L2 domain. Only opaque polymer rods were obtained. Acrylamide, a water soluble monomer, plays a role of co-surfactant which greatly expands the L2 domain. However, polymerizations only yielded opaque material. SEM showed images of phase separation.
MDOS (2-Methacryloyloxy)ethyl trimethylammonium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate, was synthesized by ion exchange method. L1 and L2 domains of the water/MDOS/MMA ternary system were also investigated at 22±1°C. Free radical polymerizations were conducted in L2 domain. Transparent polymer was produced. The …
