Vinylphenylglycidyl ether-based colloidal architectures: high-functionality crosslinking reagents, hybrid raspberry-type particles and smart hydrophobic surfaces

Abstract

An efficient synthetic strategy for the preparation of monodisperse colloidal core/shell architectures with reactive epoxy functionalities is reported, based on the bifunctional vinylphenylglycidyl ether monomer. Accessibility of the reactive immobilized epoxy moieties was quantified by UV/vis spectroscopy in an isorefractive medium. Inorganic–organic hybrid raspberry-type architectures revealed a tremendous inpact on the surface wettability of water.
