ABSTRACT
Three compositions of glycidyl methacrylate and styrene were added
with Fe3O4, ethylene glycol
dimethacrylate (EGDMA), poly vinyl alcohol (PVA)
and 2, 2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (DMPP). Fe3O4 were
dispersed within monomers and were exposed to the ultraviolet radiation for
polymerization process. The Fe3O4 particles
were introduced to enhance physical and chemical properties of the polymers.
The thermal properties of polymer were improved after addition of styrene and
Fe3O4. Vibrating sample
magnetometer (VSM) also exhibits copolymer with soft ferromagnetic
properties. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM)
showed the size of magnetic polymer microspheres were from 0.5 to 1.5 μm.
The rough surface was also observed due to the presence of styrene.
Keywords: Fe3O4;

ABSTRAK
Tiga komposisi glisidil metakrilat dan stirena
ditambah dengan Fe3O4,
etilena glikol dimetakrilat (EGDMA), poli vinil alkohol (PVA)
dan 2,2-dimetoksi-2-fenilasetofenon (DMPP). Fe3O4 disebarkan
di dalam monomer dan didedahkan kepada sinaran ultra lembayung untuk proses
pempolimeran. Zarah Fe3O4 dimasukkan
untuk meningkatkan sifat fizik dan kimia polimer. Sifat
terma polimer meningkat selepas penambahan stirena dan Fe3O4. Magnetometer sampel bergetar (VSM)
juga mempamerkan kopolimer bersifat ferromagnet lembut. Mikroskop
elektron imbasan pancaran medan (FESEM)
menunjukkan saiz mikrosfera polimer bermagnet ialah daripada 0.5 hingga 1.5
μm. Permukaan kasar juga diperhatikan kerana kehadiran
stirena.
