Interests on polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers have been rising recent years, due to their high potentials in many applications such as drug delivery, encapsulation, and metal ion absorption. Abundant amine groups in PAMAM facilitate absorption/adsorption of the polymer to heavy metal ions, and gases such as CO2. However, dendrimer requires long, tedious and costly synthetic steps to obtain high molecular weight. In this study, we carried out a simple one-step synthesis of hyperbranched PAMAM, which is an analogue of dendrimer, in the shape of particle from inverse suspension polymerization. With Oil-in-Water-in-Oil (O/W/O) polymerization, we also obtained porous PAMAM particles. |
