The effects of reaction conditions such as the amounts of α-MeSt, THF, and Br_2 as well as molecular weight of polystyrene on the bromating efficiency (BE) and coupling extent (CE) were examined. The present results show that the yield of PStBr obtained was more than 93. 8% and the coupling reaction was substantially absent. PStBr was further used as the macroinitiator in the polymerization of methyl-methacrylate (MMA) in the presence of copper (I ) halogen and 2, 2' -bipyridine (bpy) complexes. It was found that the molecular weight of the resulted PSt-b-PMMA increased linearly with the increase of the conversion of MMA and the polydispersity was 1. 2-1.6. The structures of PStBr and P(St-b-MMA) were characterized by ~1H NMR spectra.展开更多

G3-NH2 as a macroinitiator for the ring-opening polymerization of -benzyl L-glutamate N-carboxyanhydride was investigated.

The macroinitiator was further use to polymerize acrylamide (AAm) in benzene to form polybutadiene/polyacrylamide (PBD/PAAm) block copolymers. High conversion of AAm was obtained over a wide range of monomer/macroinitiator ratios. The PBD/PAAm block copolymers were found to have excellent solvent resistance.展开更多

Hydroxyl terminated PVP, synthesized with 2-mercaptoethanol as a chain transfer reagent, was employed as a rnacroinitiator. The resulting copolymers were characterized by GPC, ^1H NMR and IR. Increasing the BTMC/PVP-OH feed ratio ([B]/[P]) resulted in the increase of Mn of corresponding copolymers and the decrease of Mw/Mn. Immobilized enzyme has comparable catalytic activity to SnOct2 for the copolymerization.展开更多

The random copolymers of poly(4-vinylbenzyl chloride-co-vinyl acetate) (P(VBC-co-VAC)) with number average molecular weight (Mn) from 2000 to 6900, relatively narrow molecular weight distribution (MWD, Mw/Mn ca. 2.0) and with different copolymer composition of 4-vinylbenzyl chloride (VBC) from 17 mol% to 62 mol% could be obtained. The P(VBC-co-VAC) copolymers with an average number of 7 to 13 initiating sites of benzyl chloride per macromolecule could be used for the cationic polymerization of isobutylene (IB). The cationic polymerizations of IB were further conducted by using P(VBC-co-VAC) copolymers as macroinitiators in conjunction with TICl4 at -40℃ in CH2Cl2. The effects of VBC/TiCl4 (molar ratio) on monomer conversion, Mn and MWD of the resultant copolymers were investigated under 3 sets of conditions. It is found that P(VBC-co-VAC)-g-PIB copolymers with relatively narrow MWD (Mw/Mn ca. 2.0) and with terminal tert-chlorine functional groups in branched PIB chains could be successfully synthesized when VBC/TiCl4 (molar ratio) was set in the range from 0.10 to 1.12. The unimodal GPC curve of the P(VBC-co-VAC)-g-PIB copolymers by RI detector was almost in harmony with the GPC curve by UV detector. The TEM image of the P(VBC-co-VAC)-g-PIB copolymer stained by RuO indicated that the copolymer formed a two-phase morphology with P(VBC-co-VAC)-rich domains of 20-100 um in size tethered by PIB branch segments.展开更多

The copolymerization was carried out in bulk or anisole with CuBr/bipy catalyst at 100-130℃. It is found that the resulting copolymers possess predetermined molecular weights and narrower polydispersities (1.18 < Mw / Mn < 1.32). The effects of reaction temperature and monomer feed on the copolymerization kinetics were investigated in detail. By using the Fineman-Ross method, the apparent monomer reactivity ratios for the atom transfer radical copolymerization of PhMI and St were determined to be rPhMI = 0.0207, and rSt = 0.0484, respectively.展开更多
