摘要

AbstractA preparation method for new highly durable hydrophilic porous polymer particles consisting of acrylic monomers and copolymerizable cross‐linking agents was studied. In the case of using only a two‐functional acrylic monomer as the cross‐linking agents, the obtained particles had a relatively low mechanical strength, but by the addition of a multifunctional acrylic monomer into the above system, it was found that the porous particles obtained became highly durable and showed excellent mechanical strength of more than 500 kg/cm2. The effect of preparation conditions on the specific surface area of these particles consisting of three components was investigated from the following viewpoints: The first was aimed at the stabilized phase of droplets consisting of monomer/cross‐linkers/porogen under various conditions of aqueous poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) media, and the second was the effect of composition changes of the monomer and cross‐linkers on the inner porous structure of the particles obtained. Thus, the specific surface area of the particles was found to be significantly affected both by the degree of saponification (DS) of PVA and by the change of composition. On the other hand, the average pore radius of typical particles obtained in this way can be controlled in the range from 40 to 120 Å by the weight ratio of chlorobenzene as the porogen. Furthermore, the mechanical stability and durability of the column packed with the porous particles obtained were discussed. © 1993 John Wile
