Abstract The ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of tetrahydrofuran (THF) and ε-caprolactone (CL) was performed at 160 oC for 2 hr under N2 ambiance by using two different dyes such as fluorescein (Flur) and rhodamine6G (R6G) as novel initiators. The structure of the dye centered diblock copolymers was concluded by analyzing the NMR spectra. The melt transition temperature and thermal stability of the polymers were concluded by DSC and TGA. The FT-IR spectra concluded the structure of the dye grafted homopolymer and diblock copolymers. The increase in molecular weight (Mw) of the dye-centered diblock copolymer was concluded by the GPC measurement. The conjugation of dye with the polymer backbone was carried out by a single-step method.

The use of a surfactant derived from the degradation of natural rubber gloves via cross-metathesis with methyl acrylate and subsequent saponification of the ester group for the stabilization of water in dicyclopentadiene high internal phase emulsions is described. The versatility of the resulting high internal phase emulsion was demonstrated by polymerizing the continuous dicyclopentadiene phase via Ring-opening Metathesis Polymerization yielding macroporous poly(dicyclopentadiene) foams with a porosity of 82 %. The use of the ionic surfactant allows for the preparation of foams, which are resistant to absorb water. This property was hitherto not accessible with protocols involving the use of non-ionic surfactants commonly employed in emulsion templating of polymers.<br>
