Summary: Surfactant-free microemulsions (SFMEs) based on ionic liquids (ILs) have shown great potential in various applications. In this study, a new kind of CO2-responsive SFME composed of quaternary ammonium IL, dimethyl sulfoxide, and ethyl acetate was developed. The microemulsion can be reversibly switched between emulsification and complete phase separation upon CO2 and N-2 bubbling. Mechanism studies confirmed that the reversible switching is due to the generation and restoration of more hydrophilic carbamate salts from the reaction of CO2 with IL anions. The CO2-switchable SFMEs were used as a microreactor for room temperature synthesis of Zn-based metal-organic frameworks, achieving successful reaction and microemulsion recycling.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between the morphology of PMMA monopolymers and PMMA-PHEMA copolymers with the expected nature of surfactant-free microemulsions (SFMEs) before polymerization. It is found that previously mesostructured, surfactant-free mixtures can produce porous polymers of different morphologies, while unstructured, oil-rich regions lead to solid, transparent polymers without nanostructured morphologies. Additionally, a surfactant-based reference system shows similar phase behavior and polymer morphologies as the comparable surfactant-free system, indicating the importance of the hydrotropic behavior of HEMA in this system.
