Methyl methacrylate-maleic anhydride copolymers have been subjected to y-irradiation. The ESR spectra depend on both the temperature and the content of maleic anhydride in the copolymer. By accurate determination of the spectra and by investigation of the decay of its individual components, computer

✦ Synopsis
Methyl methacrylate-maleic anhydride copolymers were destructed mechanically; their ESR spectra were studied over the range -50 ° to + 50 ° using three copolymers of different compositions. From theoretical spectra, radicals present in the system were identified at various temperatures; their decay was investigated. Radicals in the mechanically destructed copolymer were compared with those trapped in gamma-irradiated copolymer. At -50 ° in the copolymer destructed, some radicals are stabilized which do not occur in the gamma-irradiated copolymer; at room temperature, the differences between the spectra are not substantial.

A series of maleic anhydride (MA)Èvinyl acetate (VA), MAÈmethyl methacrylate (MM) and MAÈstyrene (S) copolymers were prepared and characterized. By employing various amounts of initiator, MAÈVA, MAÈMM and MAÈS copolymers with molecular weights ranging between 18 000 and 219 000 were obtained. The "i
Poly(methyl methacrylate-maleic anhydride) [P(MMA-MAn)] with active groups, anhydrides, was synthesized by radical copolymerization. Using P(MMA-MAn) as a basic polymer, the P(MMA-MAn)/SiO 2 hybrid materials were obtained by a sol-gel process in different ways. The structures of the materials were c
