  Abstract

The preparation of high performance poly(methyl methacrylate-acrylic acid-divinylbenzene) (P(MMA-AADVB)) microcapsule encapsulating octadecane (OD) having carboxyl groups on the surface for textile application was studied. The P(MMA-methyl acrylate (MA)-DVB) microcapsule was previously prepared by microsuspension iodine transfer polymerization prior to hydrolysis of MA segment to obtain AA in the P(MMA-AA-DVB) shell. Using 30 wt% of MA and 20 wt% of DVB, the latent heats of melting and crystallization of the encapsulated OD were close to those of original OD (245 and 251 J/g-OD, respectively). After hydrolysis, the zeta potential value of the obtained P(MMA-AADVB) microcapsule surface was -33 mV representing the formation of carboxyl groups of PAA derived from PMA. The influences of nucleating agent amount and type on the reduction of supercooling were then investigated. Using 1-octadecanol at 10 wt% of OD provided the best result. Tc of the encapsulated OD increased and reached to that of original OD while the latent heats were maintained. The hydrolyzed P(MMA-AA-DVB) presented higher efficiency than P(MMA-MA-DVB) microcapsules for fabric coating without external binder which may due to the interaction of microcapsule surface functional group with fabric.
