High environmental tolerance is a critical requirement for coating applications
particularly in automotive paint. This study successfully fabricated ordered porous photonic microspheres with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as the framework using an organized spontaneous emulsification (OSE) mechanism
showing vibrant and adjustable structural colors. PMMA with narrow molecular weight distributions was synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP)
and the efficient removal of terminal double bonds resulting from disproportionation termination was achieved through thiol-ene click reactions. Additionally
PMMA macromonomers with norbornene units were prepared through esterification reactions. By employing sequential ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP)
(poly(norbornene-g-PMMA)-b-(poly(norbornene-g-PEO)) (PMMA-b-PEO) bottlebrush block copolymers (BBCPs) were successfully synthesized with tunable number-average molecular weights ranging from 174 to 359 kDa and low PDIs below 1.2. In the OSE process
bio-based and environmentally safe anisole was utilized as the oil phase instead of toluene
enhancing the safety and eco-friendliness of the material preparation process
eliminating potential harmful residues
and facilitating large-scale production and application. PMMA-based structural color pigments are anticipated to demonstrate outstanding weather resistance and offer significant potential for applications like automotive paint coatings.
