Dispersion polymerization of n-butylacrylate under the action of acrylic acid and N-isopropylacrylamide copolymers

Abstract

The regularities of dispersion radical polymerization of n-butylacrylate in water-alcohol medium under the action of polymer tritiocarbonates based on copolymers of acrylic acid and N-isopropylacrylamide have been investigated. The conditions for the formation of a block copolymer with controlled molecular weight and high yield have been found. The conditions of formation of stable suspensions of block copolymers with unimodal particle size distribution have been determined.

Unsaturated Polyester Resin Nanocomposites Based on Post-Consumer Polyethylene Terephthalate

“…More expensive functional fillers are metal oxides [16], with titanium dioxide being one of the most usable. TiO 2 nanoparticles have a number of specific properties: antimicrobial, photocatalytic, heavy metal ions sorption ability [17,18]. Filling of UPRs with nanoparticles proved to increase their thermal, mechanical, and anti-UV aging properties [19].…”
