Radical Copolymerization of Allyl and Vinyl Monomers Derived from 1,4-Benzoquinone with Acrylic Acid

摘要

Radical copolymerization of allyl and vinyl redox monomers derived from 1,4-benzoquinone with acrylic acid in dimethylformamide was studied.Allyl compounds are difficultly polymerizing monomers;therefore,they are mostly used as co-monomers in combination with other vinyl monomers.Monoethanolamine vinyl ether(MEAVE)also polymerizes under rigorous conditions.Copolymerization with carboxyl-containing monomers and,in particular,acrylic acid acquires growing importance for modification of polymeric materials as a way to enhance their heat resistance,hydrophilicity,adhesion,and also thermoreactive,ion-exchange,and other properties.
