Abstract
Poly 4โvinylpyridine (P4VP) microspheres between 170 and 728 nm were synthesized by EmulsifierโFree Emulsion Polymerization. The monomer concentration, ionic strength, and initiator concentration affected the microsphere size and size distribution. The increasing monomer concentration led to the increase of microsphere size, whereas the size distribution of the resultant P4VP microspheres increased with the increasing ionic strength of the reaction systems. Mo(O~2~)~2~Oยท2DMF was successfully anchored onto the P4VP microspheres by ligand exchange, and the heterogeneous catalyst showed highโcatalytic activity for epoxidation of cisโcyclooctene with environmentally friendly hydrogen peroxide. The size and morphology of the supported microspheres has important influence on the catalytic activity. ยฉ 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010

Although poly(4-vinylpyridine) is believed to have good gas permselectivity, the intrinsic gas permeation property is rarely reported in the literature. The objective of this work is to study the the intrinsic gas permeation property of poly(4-vinylpyridine) using a free-standing film. Because of it
