A. Three general methods of preparing graft copolymers • A monomer is polymerized in the presence of a polymer with branching • resulting from chain transfer. • (2) A monomer is polymerized in the presence of a polymer having reactive • functional groups or positions that are capable of being activated • (3) Two polymers having reactive functional groups are coreacted. 9.5.2 Graft Copolymers
(1) Chain transfer 1) Three components polymer, monomer, and initiator 2) The initiator may play one of two roles • It polymerizes the monomer to form a polymeric radical • (or ion or coordination complex), which, in reacts with the original polymer • ② it reacts with the polymer to form a reactive site on the backbone which, • in turn, polymerizes the monomer. 9.5.2 Graft Copolymers
3) Consideration ① reactivity ratios of monomers ② To take into account the frequency of transfer determine the number of grafts. 4) Grafting sites : That are susceptible to transfer reactions At carbons adjacent to double bonds in polydienes At carbons adjacent to carbonyl groups 9.5.2 Graft Copolymers
