With RAFT tacticity

PSSA may also be prepared by sulfonation of polyst5rrene or by hydrolysis of poly(re-propyl p-vinylbenzenesulfonate). The latter cases allow preparation of tactic structures. Copol5uners can also be prepared by free-radical copolymerization of appropriate monomers or post-reaction. Poljuners are purified by precipitation of aqueous solutions with methanol, alkaline methanol, or other alcohols. Controlled structure PSSA homopolymers and block copolymers may also be prepared directly in aqueous media via RAFT using 4-cyanopentanoic acid dithiobenzoate as the CTA and V-501 as the radical source (48). NMP has been successfully...
