Synthesis and characterization of semicrystalline triblockcopolymers of isotactic polystyrene and polydimethylsiloxane

Abstract: iPS‐b‐PDMS‐b‐iPS triblock copolymers were prepared by hydrosilylation of vinyl‐terminated isotactic polystyrenes (iPS) with α,ω‐bis(dimethylsilane)‐terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane)s (PDMS). As a function of the molecular weights of the two components, the triblock copolymer composition was varied between 9.0 and 98 wt % iPS. The resulting triblock copolymers remained soluble during block copolymer synthesis due to slow iPS crystallization in solution. At iPS content exceeding 31 wt %, the iPS crystallization … Show more

“…However, their plasticizing temperatures were relatively low and could not meet the requirement for practical utilization. In addition, in thermoplastic silicone elastomers based on H-bonding or triblock copolymers 50 , 51 , melting temperatures could reach above 170 °C, but they may not have good solvent resistance at high temperature.…”

“…This efficient decoupling of iPS block copolymer synthesis and iPS segment crystallization was first demonstrated for the preparation of semicrystalline ABA‐type rubber triblock copolymers such as iPS‐block‐polydimethylsiloxane‐block‐iPS. Here, the covalent coupling of vinyl‐iPS with both Si‐H end groups of polydimethylsiloxane was achieved by means of a hydrosilylation reaction . Our alternative synthetic strategy for producing semicrystalline PCO‐ b ‐iPS diblock copolymers with variable iPS‐ and polycyclooctene‐block lengths is displayed in Scheme .…”

“…In order to develop thermoplastic PDMS, physical crosslinks have been introduced to PDMS by copolymerization. Thermoplastic PDMS copolymers generally consist of a soft segment and a hard segment . The soft segment is composed of PDMS with an elastic property, while the hard segment introduces a thermoplastic polymer with the thermoplastic (remoldable) property .…”
