Popis: | The system N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (VP)/polydimethylsiloxane diglycidylether (PDMS-DGE) is a typical example of an oil-in-oil emulsion formed by two non-miscible liquids, where both phases are polymerizable in a ‘one-pot’ procedure by two distinct reaction mechanisms. These oil-in-oil emulsions were characterized by their stability and by the particle size of the dispersed VP phase. Non-aqueous dispersions (NADs) are obtained in a first step by free radical polymerization of the dispersed VP phase. The reaction kinetics, studied as a function of the initiator type and concentration, show that the polymerization rate is mainly influenced by the partition coefficient of the initiator between both phases. The NAD particle size could be tailored from a micrometer to a nanometer range by in situ formation of PVP-PDMS graft copolymer. Hydrophilic–hydrophobic two-phase materials can be obtained by polycondensation, in the presence of polyamines, of the epoxy-functionalized PDMS continuous NAD phase.
