This invention relates to a process for forming an azide-grafted polymer. The process comprises mixing a free-radical-reactive polymer with a free-radical initiator and an azide monomer that contains at least one unsaturated CC bond capable of reacting with a radical, under solid-state grafting conditions, to form an azide-grafted polymer. The formed azide-grafted polymer can be used to prepare a long-chain branched or cross-linked polymer.

Disclosed is a simplified process for producing magnetic polymer particles. The process comprises: (a) providing a composition having a liquid monomer which is radical polymerizable, a radical initiator soluble in the monomer, a steric stabilizer, and a ferrofluid comprising surfactant-coated colloidal magnetic particles in a carrier fluid which is miscible with the monomer; (b) preparing an emulsion from a polar solvent which is immiscible with the monomer, and the composition of step (a); (c) adding seed polymer particles to the emulsion, mixing to form a seeded emulsion, and incubating the seeded emulsion, thereby swelling the seed polymer particles; and (d) activating the radical initiator and polymerizing the monomer in the swollen seed polymer particles; thereby producing the magnetic polymer particles. The process forms monodisperse magnetic particles. The particles are characterized by a uniform distribution of magnetic material, and an absence of magnetite bleeding.
