Maleic anhydride copolymerization thermal initiation

CPT-SO > System. Bulk copolymerization of CPT and SO> takes takes place spontaneously at a remarkable rate even at —15 °C. In comparison with the thermal initiation of p-dioxene and maleic anhydride which proceeds through a similar charge transfer complex at room temperature (13), the interaction between CPT and S02 seems more pronounced, giving the propagating species at a lower temperature. 

Macroradicals obtained by the heterogeneous copolymerization of styrene and maleic anhydride in poor solvents such as benzene were used to initiate further polymerization of selected monomers. This technique was used to produce higher molecular weight alternating copolymers of styrene and maleic anhydride and block copolymers. Evidence for the block copolymers was based op molecular weight increase, solubility, differential thermal analysis, pyrolytic gas chromatography, and infrared spectroscopy. 

The ability of AAm complexes with Cr(III), Er(III) and other metal nitrates to involve other comonomers, such as acrylic or methacrylic acid and maleide anhydride, in spontaneous copolymerization in aqueous solutions has been reported [122]. It was possible to copolymerize transition metal nitrate AAm complexes with maleic acid under frontal conditions by thermal initiation [83]. 

Thermal and UV-initiated cyclo-polymerizations of mixed allyl-butenedioate monomers with both donor and acceptor unsaturations such as methyl allyl fumarate or maleate were recently described. Hyperbranched macromolecules were obtained by free radical alternating copolymerization of bifunctional monomers containing two polymerizable double bonds of allyl and vinylene type with styrene or maleic anhydride. Thanks to their original structure, this new class of liquid blends exhibit improved mechanical and physical properties useful for a wide range of coating applications. ...
