| Abstract: | Glass transition temperatures are reported for copolymers of acenaphthylene with the following comonomers: methyl meth-acrylate, styrene, maleic anhydride, diethyl maleate, N-vinyl-pyrrolidone, a-methylstyrene, and trans-stilbene. The data are discussed in terms of previously published treatments of the dependence of glass transition temperature on copolymer composition. The drop in glass transition temperature consequent upon incorporation of small quantities of comonomer is not related to the glass transition temperature of the corresponding homopolymer. |
