✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Ethyl cellulose‐graft‐poly(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (EC‐graft‐PHEMA) graft copolymers were synthesized by atom‐transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) in methanol. The graft copolymers were characterized by means of gel‐permeation chromatography (GPC) and ^1^H NMR spectroscopy. The kinetic study indicated that the polymerization was controllable. The EC‐graft‐PHEMA copolymers self‐assembled in water into spherical micelles. The morphology of the micelles was characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electric microscopy (TEM) and the formation process of the micelles was discussed.

A successive method for preparing novel amphiphilic graft copolymers with a hydrophilic backbone and hydrophobic side chains was developed. An anionic copolymerization of two bifunctional monomers, namely, allyl methacrylate (AMA) and a small amount of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), was carried out in
