✦ Synopsis
A~tract--The radical copolymerization of (2,6-diphenyl) phenyl methacrylate (1) with methyl methacrylate in DMF with AIBN at 70°C has the reactivity ratios rj = 0.071 and r 2 = 1.42, from which Q~ = 1.45 and e L = 1.20. The copolymers had M,s in the range of 10,000-40,000 and Tgs ranging from 406 to 480 K from which the hypothetical Tg for poly-1 was deduced as 500 K (227°C). Unlike 1, (2,6-diphenyl) phenyl acrylate could be polymerized to oligomers with M n of the order of 2500.
