Synthesis of AgCl Nanoparticles in W/O Microemulsion and Study of AgCl/Poly(GMA-co-MMA-co-AMPS) Copolymer Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Membranes

Article Preview

Abstract:

AgCl Nanoparticles were synthesized in the W/O microemulsion using 2-acrylamido-2-methyl propane sulfonic acid as a surfactant, glycidyl methacrylate (GMA)/ methacrylate (MMA) mixtures as an oil phase. Then, AgCl/poly (GMA-MMA-AMPS) copolymer organic-inorganic hybrid membranes were prepared by in-situ microemulsion polymerization for separation of benzene/cyclohexane mixture. The effect of concentration of surfactant (CAMPS) and salt (NaCl and AgNO3) on the morphology of AgCl nanoparticles was studied by TEM. The results showed that the sizes of AgCl nanoparticles increased with salt concentration. AgCl nanoparticles maintained well dispersion in AgCl/poly (GMA-MMA-AMPS) copolymer organic-inorganic hybrid membranes. The hybrid membrane demonstrated good separation performance for benzene/cyclohexane mixtures.
