Synthesis and self-assembly of fluorocarbon- and hydrocarbon-modified hydrophilic polymers. Final report

摘要

Over the past 3 years, work was done in several areas: effect of spacer lengths on degree of association of hydrophobically modified polyacrylamides; fluorocarbon mediated association of R(sub F)- substituted polyacrylamide-2-(acrylamido) -2-methyl-propane sodium sulfonate copolymers; hydrophobic association in R(sub F)(R(sub H))-modified poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide)(PDMA) and polyvinylpyrrolidone; synthesis of R(sub F)-containing poly(N- isopropyl acrylamide)'s; synthesis of HM narrow MWD telechelics PDMA and PDMA block copolymers; and studies of telechelic R(sub F)(R(sub H)) derivatives of polyethyleneglycols. 15 refs, 7 figs, 2 tabs.
