Facile Method of Controlling Monomer Sequence Distributions in Random Copolymers
Source abstract
Abstract
Copolymers of poly(styrene-co-4-bromostyrene) (PBrxS) with adjustable monomer sequence distribution of styrene (S) and 4-bromostyrene (4-BrS) and composition (x = content of 4-BrS) are prepared by brominating parent polystyrene (PS). While bromination reaction carried out above the theta temperature (Θ) leads to PBrxS with random monomer distribution, bromination of PS performed at temperatures below Θ produces PBrxS having a random-blocky character.

24. The radius of gyration of a macromolecule Rg scales with the polymer degree of polymerization N asN3/5(good solvent) N1/2(theta θ solvent) andN1/3(poor solvent). Hence by decreasing the solvent quality from good to poor the macromolecule undergoes a coil‐to‐globule transition.

33. In order to get absolute mKs one needs to establish both the dependence of the birefringence on the 4‐BrS concentration (reported here in terms of Kerr constants i.e. the slopes in Fig. 2) and the variation of PBrxS solution dielectric constants and refractive indices with the 4‐BrS concentration. Because all three terms in the expression of mKs are additive (references [30 31]) we neglected any differences in solution dielectric constants and refractive indices (because dielectric constants and refractive indices should only depend on comonomer composition and not comonomer sequence) and instead worked with ratios of the experimental birefringences to learn the effects of comonomer sequence at constant comonomer composition.

38. Rheological measurements performed at the sameT – Tgas the dewetting experiments showed that the melt zero shear rate viscosities of PBr0.59S‐CD33 and PBr0.58S‐CDD33 and hence their diffusivity were identical within experimental uncertainty.
