Statistical and Block Copolymers of Ethylene and Vinyl Acetate via Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer Polymerization
2021
A dithiocarbamate chain transfer agent (CTA) based on Z-group substituted with a diphenyl amine (-NPh2 ) moiety is selected for the synthesis of statistical and diblock copolymers of ethylene and vinyl acetate via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization. Benefiting from the good chain growth control of polyethylene (PE), poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc), and poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) achieved with this CTA, linear diblock copolymers of the type EVA-b-PE, EVA-b-EVA, and PVAc-b-EVA are successfully synthesized. A three-arm EVA star is additionally obtained starting from a trifunctional dithiocarbamate CTA.
