Poly grafting onto

Brominated Styrene. Dibromostyrene [31780-26 ] is used commercially as a flame retardant in ABS (57). Tribromostyrene [61368-34-1] (TBS) has been proposed as a reactive flame retardant for incorporation either during polymerization or during compounding. In the latter case, the TBS could graft onto the host polymer or homopolymerize to form poly(tribromostyrene) in situ (58). 

A review covers the preparation and properties of both MABS and MBS polymers (75). Literature is available on the grafting of methacrylates onto a wide variety of other substrates (76,77). Typical examples include the grafting of methyl methacrylate onto mbbers by a variety of methods chemical (78,79), photochemical (80), radiation (80,81), and mastication (82). Methyl methacrylate has been grafted onto such substrates as cellulose (83), poly(vinyl alcohol) (84), polyester fibers (85), polyethylene (86), poly(styrene) (87), poly(vinyl chloride) (88), and other alkyl methacrylates (89). 

The first chiral phases introduced for gas chromatography were either amino acid esters, dipeptide, diamide or carbonyl-bis(amino acid ester) phases [721,724,756-758]. In general, these phases exhitdted poor thermal stability and are infrequently used today. Real interest and progress in chiral separations resulted from the preparation of diamide phases grafted onto a polysiloxane backbone. These phases were thermally stable and could be used to prepare efficient open tubular columns [734,756,758-762]. These phases are prepared from commercially available poly(cyano-propylmethyldimethylsiloxanes) or poly (cyanopropylmethylphenyl-... 

Ti-SBA-15 Grafting method. SBA-15 prepared first using the amphiphilic triblock copolymer poly(ethyleneox-ide) -poly (propyleneoxide) -poly (ethyleneoxide) (EO-PO-EO) as template and TEOS as Si source. The composition was 2 g copolymer 0.021 mol TEOS 0.12 mol HC1 3.33 mol H20. The solid was calcined at 600 K for 4 h to remove the copolymer. Ti in the form of titanium isopropoxide was grafted onto the dehydrated surface of SBA-15 Pore diameter = 6.3 nm, surface area = 518 m2/g, pore volume = 0.68 (25)... 

DENDRITIC POLY(STYRENES) BY GRAFTING ONTO POLYiCHLOROETHYL VINYL ETHER)... 

Also we have not considered the possibility of grafting on grafted polyAM chains. If this could happen efficiently, the graft layer should have grown much thicker. Relevant to this problem, grafting onto poly(ethylene-g-maleimide) was not observed in photoinduced graft polymerization of maleimide to polyethylene... 

Carboxyethyl derivatives of the nucleic acid bases were grafted onto poly-L-lysine by using the activated ester method ( ). 

The synthetic methods and chemical characterization data for the various polymeric materials to be discussed in this work have been reported elsewhere [6-8]. In some cases copolymerization of the unchlorinated oxazolidinone monomer with other common monomers such as acrylonitrile, vinyl chloride, styrene, and vinyl acetate, using potassium persulfate as an initiator, was performed. In other cases the unchlorinated oxazolidinone monomer was grafted onto polymers such as poly(acrylonitrile), poly(vinyl chloride), poly(styrene), poly(vinyl acetate), and poly(vinyl alcohol), again using potassium persulfate as an initiator. 

Recently, Quirk and Mathers [264] performed LASIP of isoprene on silicon wafers. A chlorodimethylsilane-functionalized diphenylefhene (DPE) was coupled onto the surface and lithiated with n-BuLi to form the initiating species. The living poly(isoprene) (PI) was end- functionalized with ethylene oxide. A brush thickness of 5 nm after two days of polymerization (9.5 nm after four days) was obtained in contrast to a polymer layer thickness of 1.9 nm by the grafting onto method using a telechelic silane functionahzed PI. 

Osada et al. [52] have also grafted PMAA to a porous substrate in order to achieve an environmentally sensitive membrane. This sensitivity was termed a chemical valve function because mechanochemical forces caused the pores to enlarge and contract. PMAA was grafted onto poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) films which had a mean pore radius of 4 pm. The water permeation of the membrane was strongly affected by the conformational state of the PMAA grafts. At low pH the chains were contracted and the water permeability was... 

During the polymerization of the styrene, the poly(butadiene) or butadiene copolymer is grafted onto the styrene polymer chain. To increase the grafting efficiency of the poly(butadiene), it is desirable for the poly(butadiene) to have end segments having a high vinyl content rather than cis- or trans-configurations. 

ASA structural latexes have been synthesized in a two stage seeded emulsion polymerization. In the first stage, partially crosslinked poly(n-butyl acrylate) and poly( -butyl acrylate-sfaf-2-ethylhexyl acrylate) rubber cores are synthesized. In the second stage, a hard styrene acrylonitrile copolymer (SAN) shell is grafted onto the rubber seeds (16). 

The first work in this field was probably that of Piletsky et al. [84] that described a competitive FILA for the analysis of triazine using the fluorescent derivative 5-[(4,6-dichlorotriazin-2-yl)amino]fluorescein. The fluorescence of the supernatant after incubation was proportional to the triazine concentration and the assay was selective to triazine over atrazine and simazine. The same fluorescent triazine derivative was applied to competitive assays using atrazine-imprinted films [70]. To this end an oxidative polymerization was performed in the presence of the template, the monomer(s) 3-thiopheneboronic acid (TBA) or mixtures of 3-amino-phenylboronic acid (APBA) and TBA (10 1) in ethanol-water (1 1 v/v) where the template is more soluble. The polymers were grafted onto the surface of polystyrene microplates. The poly-TBA polymers yielded a detection limit of 8 pM atrazine whereas for the poly-TBA-APBA plates it was lowered to 0.7 pM after 5 h of incubation. However, a 10-20% decrease in the polymer affinity was observed after 2 months.
