Synthesis Studies on Paramagnetic Polystyrene Latex Particles

  • Chapter
Scientific and Clinical Applications of Magnetic Carriers

Abstract

Radical polymerization in emulsion and in dispersion was applied to incorporate colloidal paramagnetic material into polystyrene latex particles. In emulsion, freshly precipitated magnetite (FeO · Fe2O3 = Fe3O4) with a diameter of approx. 10–20 nm was stabilized by different emulsifier systems including commercial ionic and nonionic stabilizers, surface-active initiators (polyethylene glycol [PEG] modified azo-initiators) and polymerizable emulsifiers (sodium-sulfopropyl alkylmaleates).
