Living Anionic Surface Initiated Polymerization (SIP) of Styrene from Clay Surfaces
Source abstract
Abstract
Anionic surface initiated polymerization (SIP) was investigated to improve the stabilities and grafting densities of polymers on clay. This is a challenge because of the difficulties with the anionic polymerization mechanism and the presence of adventitious H2O molecules in silicates and clay. Our results showed the living anionic polymerization was only possible with the 1,1-diphenylethylene (DPE) initiator and a reaction protocol involving heating to 120 °C. The reaction serves to distinguish between surface and intergallery initiation.

19. FT-IR analysis showed CC double bond stretching vibrations at 1600, 1549, and 1458 cm-1compared to the pure clay IR spectrum, which has a broad peak centered at 1050 (Si−O−Si antisymmetric stretch). The vibrational bands typical for bound polystyrene, such as the CH stretching vibrations around 3000 cm-1, were also observed.
