Abstract
A series of self-cross-linking fluorinated polyacrylate latex particles with core-shell structure were successfully prepared by one-step miniemulsion polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA), butyl acrylate (BA), dodecafluoroheptyl methacrylate (DFMA), and γ-methacryloxypropyl triisopropoxidesilane (MPS). The core-shell structure of the latex particles was confirmed and the latex films were characterized. Results showed that the latex films not only showed enhanced thermostability but also exhibited good hydrophobic property with the incorporation of a small amount of MPS (below 5wt% of monomers). This core-shell fluorine/silicone-containing polyacrylate latex could potentially be used for developing advanced multifunctional protective coatings such as antiwetting, anti-icing, antifogging, and anticorrosion.
