Abstract
Linear and crosslinked copolymers of a vinyl ether of ethylene glycol (2βhydroxyethyl vinyl ether, (1)) and butyl vinyl ether (2) are synthesized by Ξ±βirradiation polymerization. It is shown that the linear copolymers exhibit a phase separation phenomenon in dependence of the temperature due to the destruction of hydrogen bonds and the enhancement of hydrophobic interaction in aqueous solution. The processes of reversible swelling or shrinking upon temperature change are demonstrated for polymer networks.

Cationic copolymerization of octadecyl vinyl ether (ODVE) with isobutyl vinyl ether (IBVE) under reaction conditions leading to living vinyl ether polymerization has been studied. The experimental results show that, under such conditions, the living nature of the copolymerization can be retained. Th
Interpolymer reactions between poly(acrylic acid) and poly(vinyl ether) of ethylene glycol were studied by viscometric and spectroturbidimetric methods in aqueous and organic solutions of different nature. It is shown that the formation of interpolymer complexes strongly depends on the strength of t
