Improved malleability of miniemulsion-based vitrimers through in situ generation of carboxylate surfactants

Abstract

Epoxy-acid vitrimer particles with excellent osmotic and hydrolytic stability were synthesized by miniemulsion polymerization thanks to in situ generation of surfactants from the carboxylic acid reagent and a water-soluble base. The sulfate-free vitrimers formed in this way show greatly reduced creep viscosities.
