“…40 However, the measured molar masses were quite different from the theoretical values due to the inefficient chain transfer reaction of the CTA employed. To the best of our knowledge, the RDRP of α-fluorinated monomers bearing fluorinated pendent group (1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropyl αfluoroacrylate, FAHFiP) was only reported by Semchikov et al [42][43][44][45] using dibenzyl trithiocarbonate as chain transfer agent (CTA). After determining the reactivity ratios of FAHFiP and N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP), these authors reported that an alternating copolymer was formed.…”
