Issue Date: | 2007 | Citation: | Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics. 208:11 (2007) 1218-1227 | Abstract: | Living radical polymerization of lauryl acrylate was achieved by SET/DTLRP in water catalyzed by sodium dithionite. The work describes the synthesis of a highly hydrophobic and polar monomer in aqueous medium. The plots of versus conversion and ln[M]0/[M] versus time are linear, indicating a controlled polymerization. This method leads to alpha,omega-diiodopoly(lauryl acrylate)s that can be further functionalized. The MWDs were determined using a combination of three detectors: RALLS, DV, and RI. The method studied in this work represents a possible route to prepare well-tailored macromolecules made of LA in environment friendly reaction medium. The syndiotactic content is 75%. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/8177 | DOI: | 10.1002/macp.200700015 | Rights: | openAccess |
