Abstract
The core-shell nanocomposite particles were prepared from acrylate monomers and octavinyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (V-POSS) by emulsion polymerization. The structure and properties of emulsion and latex film were characterized by FT-IR, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and TEM and laser particle diameter analyzer (LPDA). The results showed that the V-POSS/polyacrylated (V-POSS/PMA) composite latexes was prepared and the diameter is about 36.1 nm when added 5wt% V-POSS. DMA results showed that the mechanical loss (tanδ) peak temperature (Tp) of the film enhance with increasing V-POSS content and had the best high Tp at 88.4°C for added 7 wt% V-POSS, which increased 7.8 °C than had not V-POSS. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that the addition of V-POSS can increase the thermal decomposition temperature and improved the thermal stability of polyacrylate.
