Abstract
ABSTRACTA binary emulsion system via combination of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) was employed to prepare microcapsules containing isophorone diisocyanate. The effect of different concentrations of SDBS and PVP on the size and distribution of capsules was investigated. The results showed that uniform and size‐controllable capsules were synthesized by synergistic function of SDBS and PVP. Characteristics of capsule were studied by optical microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and 1H NMR. The results revealed that the core content and yield of the spherical capsules were approximately 65.7 and 79 wt %, respectively, at the capsule diameter of ~115 μm. The residue core content of microcapsules was approximately 44.7 wt % after immersion in water for 10 days. And its self‐healing epoxy coatings showed excellent corrosion resistance performance after accelerated corrosion tests. These results exhibited the feasibility and great application prospect of the multiemulsifiers system in the microcapsule synthesis process. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.
