Synthesis and Characterization of Fluorescent Acrylamide Water Soluble Macromer

Article Preview

Abstract:

Fluorescent acrylamide water soluble macromer was synthesized from dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide-9-(chloromethyl)anthracene quaternary ammonium salt monomer using an inverse emulsion polymerization method. It was initiated by benzoylperoxide and stabilized by a co-emulsifier system consisting of Span®80 and Tween®60 dispersed in a continuous phase of cyclohexane with HLB value of 6.42. The polymerization was done at 80°C for 4 hours. The obtained macromer exhibited similar functional groups, ultraviolet-visible absorption and fluorescent emission but different solubility when compared to the monomer. Further analyses by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectrometry revealed the chemical structure of the macromer as a dimer of the monomer containing carcon-carbon double bonds.
