Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of new 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate/zinc phthalocyanine composite Poly(HEMA/MMA/ZnPc) is described for the first time in this study. The aim of this research is to present possibility of radiation synthesis of the newly zinc phthalocyanine composites as potential candidates for wide range of applications. Gel (%) and swelling for Poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) Poly(HEMA) and the based Poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate/methyl methacrylate) copolymer Poly(HEMA/MMA) with different composition 100/0, 95/5, 90/10 and 80/20 wt % were evaluated. It was found that Poly(HEMA/MMA) copolymer with composition 95/5 wt % characterized by its high swelling property at pH 7.4. The prepared composites I and II Poly(HEMA/MMA/ZnPc) with composition (95/5/1 wt%) and (95/5/1.5 wt%) respectively have been characterized by FTIR and TGA. The effect of gamma irradiation on the chemical properties of composite I was described. It is observed that the Zinc phthalocyanine with low concentration 1 wt % enhance chemical, thermal properties and stabilization against gamma radiation of the prepared composite I.
