Additive-Free Synthesis Of Poly(N-Vinyl Pyrrolidone) And Poly(N-Isopropylacrylamide) Nanogels With Controlled Sizes, Semi̇ha Duygu Süteki̇n, Feyza Kiraç, Olgun Güven
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
An easy method is proposed to prepare poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNiPAAm) nanogels with sizes less than 100 nm. The underlying principle is to prepare dilute polymer solutions in acetone/water mixtures where acetone acts to break tridimensional structure of water hence disrupting the H-bonds bridging polymer coils causing separation and shrinkage in their sizes. Irradiation of these solutions by gamma-rays directly leads to the formation of intramolecular crosslinks within the coils resulting with nanogels with sizes smaller than precursor coils. While the average size of nanogels of PVP irradiated in water only is 236 nm, they were reduced to …
