Results concerning the copolymerization of styrene with isoprene and maleic anthydride by vibratory milling are presented. The influence of some mechanochemical parameters (size of the grinding bodies, filling ratio, vibratory amplitude), on the conversions degree is discussed. In order to elucidate the mechanism, the syntheses of the copolymers were carried out in argon, nitrogen and carbon dioxide, and compared with the results in vaccum.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
