Synthesis of Core @ Shell Composite Particles with a Tunable Shell Containing Natural Urushiol

Abstract:

The core @ shell composite particles of polystyrene @ urushiol-titanium chelate polymer (PS @ UTi) was prepared through in-situ reaction between sulfonated polystyrene microspheres coated tetrabutyl titanate and urushiol. The resultant PS @ UTi was characterized by scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope. Results indicated that the PS @ UTi with the excellent properties of raw lacquer was synthesized. The shell thickness of UTi coated on PS was tunable by changing the sulfonation time.
