Preparation method for thermally expandable microsphere containing hydrophilic organic-modified colloidal silicon dioxide

Abstract

The present application provides a preparation method for a thermally expandable microsphere containing hydrophilic organic-modified colloidal silicon dioxide. In the preparation method, hydrophilic organic-modified colloidal silicon dioxide is mixed with a mixture of a monomer material capable of polymerizing to form a thermoplastic polymer shell and at least one foaming agent to form an emulsion, and the emulsion is polymerized to form the thermally expandable microsphere. Surface-modified colloidal silicon dioxide with hydrophilic organic group in the present application has good salt tolerance stability, can be stabilized in brine and is beneficial to the preparation of the thermally expandable microsphere; and the prepared microsphere has a narrow particle size distribution, can be easily dispersed in water and an organic system, and has good wettability. The application also relates to a thermally expandable microsphere and use thereof.
