ABSTRACT2-oxypropylmethacrylat termined poly (1, 3 dioxolane) macromonomers having various chain lengths, were prepared by cationic polymerization using H 2 SO 4 as initiator. The end group is introduced via the termination (end capping) using 2-hydroxypropylmethacrylate (2-HPMA). The amphiphilic graft copolymer is formed by the hydrophilic poly (1, 3-dioxolane) side chain and hydrophobic poly 2-hyèdroxypropylmethacrylate backbone with various chain lengths, were synthesized by free radical copolymerization of poly (1, 3 dioxolane) ω-oxypropylmethacrylate in the presence of 2-hydroxypropylmethacrylate using benzyle peroxide as initiator.
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.
