Synthesis of charged particles in an ultra-low dielectric solvent

Abstract

A novel method for creating charged polymer particles in non-polar organic solvents is demonstrated. A small amount of an oleophilic tetraalkylammonium tetraphenylborate group is incorporated into a poly(methyl methacrylate) particle to provide ionic groups which dissociate in low permittivity solvents.
