摘要
Batch and semibatch butyl acrylate (BA) polymerizations are carried out using a heterogeneous atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) catalyst system, with excellent molecular weight (MW) control maintained at temperatures below 80 degrees C. A kinetic model, using rate coefficients from literature and catalyst solubility data from this study, provides a good representation of the experimental results, after modifying the model to account for the decrease in rate caused by intramolecular chain transfer. it is also demonstrated experimentally that well-defined random, gradient, and block styrene/BA copolymers can be synthesized by manipulating monomer feed profiles in the ATRP semibatch process.
