Abstract: Polystyrene brushes were constructed on cationically modified silica nanoparticles(SiO2-CBAFS) by electrostatic-assembly. TGA, TEM, AFM and contact angle were used to characterize the mass loss, microscopic images, topology, surface property of the products, respectively. The results show that PS-NH-SO3Na can be successfully attached to the surface of SiO2-CBAFS nanoparticles by electrostatic-assembly with high grafting density, which is much higher than that from the reports; the aggregation of silica can be prevented efficiently by being assembled a monolayer of PS-NH-SO3Na; the water contact angles of the Si/SiO2-CBAFS/PS-NH-SO3Na decrease with the increase of molecular weight and the mass concentration of PS-NH-SO3Na under different environments.
