Abstract: | Two linear triblock copolymers poly(t-butyl methacrylate-b-2-hydroxyl ethyl methacrylate-b-N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PtBMA97-b-PHEMA18-b-PDMAEMA98) and poly(t-butyl methacrylate-b-glycidyl methacrylate-b-styrene) (PtBMA137-b-PGMA23-b-PSt156) were controlled synthesized with living RAFT polymerization technique under the chain transfer of cumyl dithiobenzoate.
The results of FT-IR spectra illustrate that the characteristic groups of copolymer fit well with the result of 1H-NMR, which successfully determines the corresponding molecular structure of triblock copolymers. The thermal stability of
PtBMA-b-PGMA-b-PSt and PtBMA-b-PHEMA-b-PDMAEMA was also complementarily explained by the activation energy of thermal decomposition from Friedman differential method
and Ozawa–Flynn–Wall integral method. The results show that the degradation energy of the former copolymer was much higher
than that of the latter copolymer, because the aromatic groups were introduced into the polymer segments of the former copolymer
during the RAFT polymerization process, and the other reason is the oxirane rings are typically reactive which they occurred
intermolecular crosslinking reaction during the thermal decomposition. |
