Abstract EN
The mechanical fracture of polymer produces polymeric free radical chain-ends, by which liner block copolymers have been synthesized.
A diblock copolymer of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and poly 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (pHEMA) was produced by the mechanochemical polymerization under vacuum and room temperature.
The fraction of pHEMA in MCC-block-pHEMA produced by the mechanochemical polymerization increased up to 21 mol% with increasing fracture time (~6 h).
Then, the tacticities of HEMA sequences in MCC-block-pHEMA varied according to the reaction time.
In the process of mechanochemical polymerization, cellulose could play the role of a radical polymerization initiator capable of controlling stereoregularity.
