Abstract
The silica/polyacylate composite latex was prepared via miniemulsion polymerization. Fluorinated acrylate monomer was used the co-stabilizer and hydrophobic modifier. The effect of fluorinated acrylate on stability of the composite latex was compared with the traditional co-stabilizer. The composite latex and the resultant film were characterized by Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy, Dynamic laser scattering, Water contact angle. Fluorinated acrylate can stabilize the miniemulsion polymerization as the co-stabilizer and the resultant film has good durability of hydrophobicity under high moisture environments.
