Description

PH-responsive dynamic shell cross-linked polymer nano-particle and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical industry and new materials, and particularly relates to a pH-responsive dynamic shell crosslinked polymer nanoparticle and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The intelligent polymer nanoparticles with environmental responsiveness are widely applied in the biomedical field, such as medical diagnosis, biological imaging, drug delivery and the like, and thus great research interest is brought to people. Generally, the environment-responsive smart polymer nanoparticles are prepared on the basis of block copolymer micelles having temperature or pH responsiveness. However, the stability of the polymer micelle is poor, and the common stimuli-responsive block copolymer has limitations in structure, responsiveness and the like, which greatly limits the practical application of the polymer nanoparticles. Recently, the formation of stimuli-responsive nanoparticles based on dynamic covalent bonds has attracted attention as an effective method. A series of polymer materials with environmental responsiveness and adaptability can be obtained by introducing dynamic covalent bonds on or among polymer chains of a shell layer of the polymer nanoparticles, and the stability of the polymer micelle can be remarkably improved by introducing cross-linking bonds.
Dynamic covalent bonds are also referred to as reversible chemical bonds, which can undergo dynamic changes of formation and cleavage under the stimulation of an external environment. The reversible property of the dynamic covalent bond is applied to the design of the polymer material, so that the reversibility of the dynamic chemical bond can be reserved, and compared with a supramolecular compound formed by a non-covalent bond, the dynamic covalent bond has better chemical stability. Based on this idea, intelligent polymer nanoparticles having various chemical compositions containing thermally responsive alkoxyamine bonds, diels-alder bonds, acylhydrazone bonds, borate bonds, and disulfide bonds were successfully prepared. Chinese patent CN201210199661.2 reports a preparation method of a temperature and pH sensitive shell crosslinked polymer micelle, which is formed by synthesizing a temperature and pH sensitive diblock copolymer by a reversible-addition fragmentation chain transfer polymerization method and then partially crosslinking a shell structure of the self-assembled polymer micelle by using small molecular dialdehyde or diacid. The small molecular cross-linking agent is used for partially cross-linking the shell structure of the micelle, and the stability of the polymer micelle is ensured. The preparation method has the characteristics of strong feasibility, simple and convenient operation, capability of recycling the micelle and the like. McCormick et al utilizes pH regulationThe amino and the aldehyde form an imine reversible chemical bond to prepare the dynamic shell crosslinked polymer nano micelleMacromolecules, 2011, 44, 1327]. Sumerlin et al synthesized poly (3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid) -bPoly (A) and (B)N-isopropyl acrylamide) block copolymer, and utilizes the block copolymer to self-assemble and prepare the polymer nano particle with three responsibilities of pH, heat and sugarChemical Communications, 2008, 21, 2477]. Subsequently, the research group prepared another poly (A)N,N-dimethylacrylamide) -bA micelle of a block copolymer of poly (acrylamidophenylboronic acid) produced by crosslinking a segment of phenylboronic acid with a diol or triol to produce star polymer nanoparticles having a reversible borate bondJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2011, 133, 19832]. Wooley et al synthesized poly (3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid) with a bifunctional group of phenylboronic acid and aminobPoly (ethylenediamine acrylamide) and assembled to form dynamically crosslinked core-shell structured polymer nanoparticles [ poly (ethylenediamine acrylamide) ], andPolymer Chemistry, 2012, 3, 3146]. However, the polymer nanoparticles in the above-mentioned patents or documents are prepared by first synthesizing a block copolymer and then forming polymer nanoparticles by self-assembly of the block copolymer in a selective solvent. It is well known that the assembly of block copolymers in selective solvents occurs only at relatively dilute (less than 1%) polymer concentrations, which results in poor yields of micelles that produce shell-crosslinked polymers.
In recent years, polymerization-induced self-assembly methods have been extensively studied and used for the mass production of polymer nanoparticles. The method is characterized in that a solvatable macromolecule RAFT (Macro-RAFT) reagent, an initiator and a polymerization monomer are added by a one-pot method, a block copolymer is formed in situ through heterogeneous RAFT polymerization and assembled to form polymer nanoparticles, and the concentration of the polymer nanoparticles can reach 30%. At present, no published literature report and patent application about the preparation of pH-responsive dynamic shell crosslinked polymer nanoparticles by using a polymerization-induced self-assembly method exist at home and abroad.
