✦ Synopsis
Abstract
An alternating copolymer of methyl methacrylate and styrene was obtained by the reaction of these two monomers in the aqueous phase and in presence of zinc chloride acting as complexing agent. It was found that the optimum conditions were obtained when the monomer concentrations are equal. The molecular weight and the molecular weight distribution were obtained by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The polymers obtained have a very narrow molecular weight distribution. A model which takes into account the various parameters is proposed.
