A novel double hydrophilic glycopolymer poly( diethyleneglycol methacrylate-co-6-Ovinyladipoyl-D-glucopyranose)( P( DEGMA-co-VAG)) with narrow polydispersity( PDI) and thermosensitivity was prepared by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer( RAFT)polymerization. P( DEGMA-co-VAG) was characterized by1 H NMR,FTIR and gel permeation chromatography( GPC). The characterization of UV-visible spectroscopy showed that the micelles from glycopolymer P( DEGMA-co-VAG) were thermo-responsive and the low critical solution temperature( LCST) could be controlled by the molar ratio of monomers. When the molar ratio of DEGMA and VAG was 2∶ 1,the LCST of P( DEGMA-co-VAG) was36 ℃ in aqueous solution,which could form nano micelles in the human body environment. It was found that P( DEGMA-co-VAG)was non-toxic at 0. 1-1 mg / m L concentrations when incubated with pig iliac endothelial cells( PIECs) for 24 h. Thus,the synthesized glycopolymers has great potential as drug delivery carriers.展开更多

The kinetic model was developed to predict polymerization rate, which indicates that the RAFT polymerization of St is a first-order reaction. In the range of experimental conversions, the plots of -ln(1-x) against time t are approximately linear (x is monomer conversion). The kinetic study reveals the existence of strong rate retardation in RAFT polymerization of styrene. A coefficient K_r is defined to estimate the rate retardation in the RAFT system considering the assumption that the retardation in polymerization rate is mainly attributed to slow fragmentation of the intermediate radicals. K_r relates to the structure of RAFT agents as well as the concentrations of RAFT agent and azobis isobutyronitrile (AIBN). For a certain RAFT agent, the value of K_r is enhanced by the increase in the initial concentration of RAFT agent and the higher ratio of RAFT to AIBN. With the same recipe for different RAFT agents, the increasing trend for the values of K_r is BDB<PEDB<CDB.展开更多
