INVESTIGATION OF THE MICROSTRUCTURE OF METAL CATALYZED CYCLOPENTENE CO-NORBORNENE POLYMERS BY SPECTRAL METHODS

摘要

For the first time, cyclopentene (CPE) has been copolymerized with the strained cycloolefin norbornene (NBE) using catalytic amounts of the electrochemi-cally prepared metathesis catalyst. The microstructure of polymers was determined by ~1H NMR and ~(13)C NMR spectroscopy. The polymers were also characterized by differential scanning calorimetry and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) techniques.
