Copolymerization of Tris(methoxyethoxy)‎vinyl Silane with N-Vinyl Pyrrolidone: Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity Relationships

الملخص EN

Copolymer of tris(methoxyethoxy)vinyl silane (TMEVS) with N-vinyl pyrrolidone (NVP) was synthesized by free radical polymerization in dry benzene at 70°C using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as initiator.

The copolymer was characterized by viscometer, FTIR, and 1H-NMR and its thermal properties were studied by DSC and TGA.

The copolymer composition was determined by elemental analysis.

The monomer reactivity ratios were calculated by linearization methods proposed by Fineman-Ross and Kelen-Tudos.

The intersection method was proposed by Mayo-Lewis and nonlinear method was proposed by curve-fitting procedure.

The microstructure of copolymer and sequence distribution of monomers in the copolymer were calculated by statistical method.
