摘要

Abstract

Microgels with a thermo-sensitive poly(

-isopropylacrylamide) (polyNIPAm) backbone and bis-imidazolium (VIM) ionic cross-links

denoted as poly(NIPAm-

-VIM)

were successfully prepared. The as-synthesized ionic microgels were converted to nanoreactors

denoted as Au@PNI MGs

upon generation and immobilization of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) of 5–8 nm in size into poly(NIPAm-

-VIM). The content of Au NPs in microgels could be regulated by controlling the 1

6-dibromohexane/vinylimidazole molar ratio in the quaternization reaction. The microgel-based nanoreactors were morphologically spherical and uniform in size

and presented reversible thermo-sensitive behavior with volume phase transition temperatures (VPTTs) at 39–40 °C. The Au@PNI MGs were used for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol

of which the catalytic activity could be modulated by temperature.
