Abstract

Novel copolymer composite resins have been synthesized using the surface assembled hybrid technology. Monodisperse polystyrene/DVB microspheres with diameters of 5.3 and 7.5 μm and polydisperse carbonaceous and acrylic microspheres with diameters ranging from 5–30 μm have been assembled onto the surface of styrene and acrylonitrile based gel and macroreticular resins.

Carbonaceous adsorbents with holes of controlled diameter on their surfaces have been prepared using the surface assembling technique. Core-shell carbonaceous adsorbents with divergent surface chemistries have been prepared using this technique

Novel catalytic materials have been made and are envisioned using the assembling technique to form short-diffusion path reactive systems. The range of surface functional groups include: strong acid, strong base, palladium, silver, gold and reductive amine-borane.
