## Abstract The effects of the chemical nature and the concentration of diol cocatalysts in the copolymerization of propylene oxide (PO) and tetrahydrofuran (THF) catalyzed by antimony pentachloride were studied. The least bulky diol, 1,2βethanediol, was found to be the most active species, judging

## Abstract To enhance the catalytic copolymerization of CO~2~ and propylene oxide catalyzed by zinc glutarate, the influence of trace of water, ethanol, and propanal on the catalytic activity, the resulted copolymer structure, and the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the copol
Supercritical carbon dioxide was found to be a suitable substitute for halogenated organic solvents in its copolymerization with propylene oxide. The system was studied utilizing a heterogenous catalyst, zinc glutarate. The polymers were analyzed for selectivity in polycarbonate linkages by 'H NMR s
