Synthesis of NIPMAM Polymer Particles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the core particle synthesis the cross-linker N,N′-methylenbisacrylamide (BIS, 3.85 mmol, Sigma-Aldrich, USA), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, 0.49 mmol, Carl Roth, Germany) and 500 mL purified water are mixed in a 1 L three-neck flask, heated up to 70 °C and stirred for 90 minutes while purged with N2. After 85 minutes the monomer N-isopropylmethacrylamide (NIPMAM, 38.5 mmol, Sigma Aldrich, USA) is added. The polymerization is initiated by ammonium persulfate (APS, 0.31 g, ≥98%, Sigma Aldrich, USA). The solution is stirred at 70 °C for additional 4 hours at 300 rpm. Afterwards it is cooled down to room temperature and stirred over night.
The particles are purified by five times centrifugation (Beckman-Coulter Avanti™ J-301 Centrifuge, rotor: JA-30.50, USA, 15 000 rpm (27216 G), 20 °C, 30 minutes), decantation and redispersion with purified water.

The detailed syntheses of N-isopropylmethacrylamide (NIPMAM, Sigma-Aldrich, purity > 97%) microgels has been described elsewhere [15 (link)]. Here we also used D7-N-isopropylmethacrylamide (D7-NIPMAM, Polymer Source. Inc., Montreal, Quebec, Canada) and D12-N-isopropylmethacrylamide (D12-NIPMAM, Polymer Source. Inc., Montreal, Quebec, Canada) as the monomers. The syntheses of (partially) deuterated microgels were similar to the one with NIPMAM. For all syntheses, we performed a precipitation polymerization under nitrogen atmosphere in 50 mL water. The concentration of the monomer was always 0.082 mol·L−1. The cross-linker was N,N-methylenebisacrylamide (BIS, 99%, 0.0082 mol·L−1), the initiator was ammonium peroxodisulfate (>98%, 0.0027 mol·L−1), and the surfactant was sodium dodecyl sulfate (>99%, 0.0049 mol·L−1). All non-deuterated chemicals were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). The different chemical structures of the (partially) deuterated monomers are shown in Scheme 1.
Furthermore, we synthesized co-polymer microgels of NIPMAM and D7-NIPMAM in different ratios. For the co-monomer synthesis, the two monomers were added at the same time. The deuterated/hydrogenated ratios were 0/100, 25/75, 50/50, 75/25, and 100/0.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
