Abstract

Artificial latexes of poly(butyl methacrylate) (PBMA), natural rubber, and other polymers were separately prepared from the bulk polymer using the CO2-responsive switchable hydrophilicity solvent N,N-dicyclohexylmethylamine (Cy2NMe) with the help of CO2. Neither distillation nor a volatile organic solvent are needed.
