Atom Transfer Radical Copolymerization of Methyl Methacrylate and n-Butyl Acrylate

Ziegler, Michael J., Matyjaszewski, Krzysztof·2001·Macromolecules

Abstract

Copolymers of methyl methacrylate and n -butyl acrylate were prepared using atom transfer radical polymerization catalyzed by CuBr/4,4‘-di(5-nonyl)-2,2‘-bipyridine (dNbpy), CuBr/ N,N, N ‘, N ‘ ‘, N ‘ ‘-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA), and CuBr/tris[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]amine (Me 6 TREN). Point estimates and 95% joint confidence intervals of the reactivity ratios were calculated for the copolymerizations catalyzed by CuBr/dNbpy ( r MMA = 2.52, r BA = 0.265) and those catalyzed by CuBr/PMDETA ( r MMA = 3.15, r BA = 0.37) using previously described least-squares calculations. Semilogarithimic plots of monomer conversion vs time were nearly linear. Plots of M n vs monomer conversion were linear, and polydispersity decreased with increasing monomer conversion. Copolymerizations were simulated using Predici 5.3.2 in order to better understand the experimentally observed results.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
