Abstract:

To wider applications of silica(SiO2) nanoparticles, the Ugi multicomponent reaction was proposed to prepare the novel polymers-silica(Oct-Alg-SiO2) nanoparticles using amidic alginate derivatives. The structure and surface elemental composition of Oct-Alg-SiO2 were confirmed by 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance(1H NMR) spectrometer and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). Additionally, the morpho-logy, size and colloid stability of Oct-Alg-SiO2 were also investigated via transmission electron microscope(TEM), zeta potential and laser particle size analyzer. The characterization of the materials revealed that Oct-Alg-SiO2 nanoparticles were successfully fabricated via the Ugi reaction. The amidic alginate derivatives were covalently bonded onto the surface of amino-functionalized silica(SiO2-NH2) nanoparticles, increasing their average diameter and tuning their zeta potential, which could exhibit good dispersion stability performance in the aqueous media. The Pickering emulsions were prepared by Oct-Alg-SiO2 using 10% liquid paraffin as the oil phase. It is worth noting that the stable Pickering emulsions with an average size of 5.7 μm could form between the oil-water interfaces. With the increase of pH value, the volume fraction of the emulsions increased and the stability of the emulsions also improved. The cytocompatibility experimental results showed that Oct-Alg-SiO2 nanoparticles possessed excellent biocompatibility. Oct-Alg-SiO2 nanoparticles combined excellent colloid stability performance of SiO2 nanoparticles and good biological properties of amidic alginate derivatives, possessing great potentials in biomedical applications.
