Yayın Film formation from nano-sized polystyrene latex particles(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2005-05) Uğur, Şaziye; Elaissari, Abdelhamid; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderThis work reports on the steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique for studying film formation from surfactant-free, nano-sized polystyrene (PS) latex particles prepared via emulsion polymerization. The latex films were prepared from pyrene M-labeled PS particles at room temperature and annealed at elevated temperatures in 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 min time intervals above the glass transition temperature (T-g) of PS. During the annealing processes, the transparency of the film was improved considerably. Monomer and excimer fluorescence intensities, I-p and I-E respectively, from P were measured after each annealing step to monitor the stages of film formation. Evolution of transparency of the latex films was monitored by using photon transmission intensity, It,. Void closure and interdiffusion stages were modeled and related activation energies were determined and found to be 10.3 and 50.3 kJ mol(-1). Void closure temperatures, T-v, were determined from the minima of I-tr value. CopyrightYayın Reversible film formation from nano-sized PNIPAM particles below glass transition(Springer-Verlag, 2007-01) Uğur, Şaziye; Elaissari, Abdelhamid; Yargı, Önder; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderReversible film formation process from nano-sized Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) microgel particles were studied during heating-cooling cycles at various rates. Photon transmission technique was used and transmitted photon intensity I (tr) was monitored during heating-cooling cycles. The increase and decrease in I (tr) during heating and cooling was explained with the void closure and void reconstruction processes, and the corresponding activation energies were measured. It was observed that PNIPAM microgels required less energy during reconstruction of voids than their closure.
