Abstract
Emulsion polymerization techniques have been identified as the potential synthetic methods for the preparation of polymer nanogels. Poly(2-diisopropylaminoethyl meth-acrylate) (PDPA) nanogels were prepared via emulsion polymerization in the presence of surfactants. The effects of different parameters (e.g., monomer and surfactant content, crosslinker, initiator, and pH) on nanogel size were investigated. By controlling these factors, the monodispersed nanogels with desired-size could be obtained. This study could shed light on future applications of the nanogels and the further developments of highly interesting concepts, and further promotes the development of controlled drug release, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine.
