Abstract
Poly(styrene-co-glycidyl methacrylate) latex microspheres with uniform size and high-density epoxy groups on the surface were prepared by soap-free emulsion polymerization with batch wise operation mode in the presence of 2,2'azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride as an initiator. The kinetics of soap-free emulsion polymerization and the effects of polymerization factors were examined. In addition, the optimum polymerization conditions of poly(styrene-co-glycidyl methacrylate) latex microspheres for immobilization of biomolecules were obtained.
