PREPARATION AND STUDY OF THE PROPERTIES OF THE COPOLYMER OF CYCLIC UNSATURATED BISMALEIMIDE WITH STYRENE

The paper is devoted to the study of regularities of radical copolymerization reactions of unsaturated cyclic N,N'-bisimides (M1) with styrene (M2), the study of dependence of copolymerization reaction rate, composition of obtained copolymers, composition and estimated molecular weight on the composition of the initial monomer mixture. With the increase of bismaleimide amount in the initial monomer mixture a decrease of copolymerization reaction yield and molecular weight of the obtained copolymers was observed. This fact can be explained by active participation of bismaleimide in chain transfer in radical copolymerization reaction. The composition of the obtained copolymers in all cases is rich in styrene links

Study of Copolymerization Reaction N,N-Dialylaminocarbonic Acids with Vinyl Acetate

The reaction of radical copolymerization of N, N-diallylaminocarboxylic acids with vinyl acetate in an aqueous and aqueous-organic medium (a mixture of methanol-water in a ratio of 70:30 mol.%) Obtained copolymers of a statistical nature. It was found that vinyl acetate under these conditions is more reactive than N, N-diallylaminocarboxylic acids. The kinetic laws of the reactions have been investigated and the structures of the copolymers have been established.

Acrylate–gelatin–carbonated hydroxyapatite (cHAP) composites for dental bone-tissue applications

The favourable properties of acrylate–gelatin–cHAP composites fabricated via copolymerization reaction may make possible porosity and hydrophilicity remodelling and thus promote scaffold-implant integration.

Polymers of Limonene Oxide and Carbon Dioxide: Polycarbonates of the Solar Economy

Limonene epoxide (1,2 limonene oxide) readily reacts with carbon dioxide in a ring opening copolymerization reaction with insertion of CO2 and formation of polycarbonates of exceptional chemical and physical properties. Both poly(limonene carbonate) and poly(limonene dicarbonate) can be synthesized using low cost Zn or Al homogeneous catalysts. This study addresses selected relevant questions concerning the technical and economic feasibility of limonene and carbon dioxide polymers en route to the bioeconomy.
