| Abstract: | Radiation-induced copolymerization of acrylonitrile with methyl acrylate was carried out in aqueous medium at room temperature. Different compositions of the copolymer were prepared and characterized by IR, 1H-NMR, thermal, and dielectric studies. NMR spectroscopy was used to determine the composition and stereochemistry of the copolymer. Glass transition temperature values (Tg ) were determined by DSC. Dielectric studies were carried out to understand the segmental motions and the effect of composition on dielectric loss. |
